Problems with intelligent people
We all want to be intelligent. That thing is very well seen in society because people are respecting intelligent people. But at the same time we are forgetting that the intelligence is something, what is inside our head or in our nervous system. Intelligence is not things like clothes or money. And why the human race has intelligence? The intelligence is meant for solving problems, and that is a thing, what we might not always remember. So what is the difference between wisdom and intelligence?
The wisdom is the intelligence of elder people, what is connected to the discretion. Young people are not many times think the consequences of the action, and that's why they would get in the trouble. So intelligence is not a mansion or automobile, and it would not always be seen from the outer substance. So what is the intelligence? Is it a large number of friends?
Maybe a person, who has a high level of social intelligence can get very many friends, but when we are thinking more carefully, and see some gangs, we must become a little bit suspicious, that is it true, that some person, who has strong opinions and big authority also intelligent? But when we are in the military service, we are always meeting persons like drill instructors, and then we might think that those people have the highest level of intelligence because they are our superiorities, and also those persons are always right.
If somebody has another opinion, would that cause reaction, what nobody wants. But then we might also think that those persons who give commands might have high IQ, and they might act their roles. This thing makes intelligence officers dangerous. They might seem a little bit "different", and they don't show that they are suspecting something, what should not be done.
And also those superiorities have the instructions, what people must do in the day, and that means that in this case, the list would make them more effective than others. This is the problem with research of intelligence. If we would compare pocket calculators with modern mobile telephones and laptop computers, those calculators might be very effective and fast, if we would do only one thing like calculations. But that pocket calculator cannot do anything else.
The problem with highly intelligent people is that they are also exposed to the influence of other people. Sometimes social pressure would make a person say something, what is against own opinion, or what would you do in the case, where you are surrounded by some Harley-Davidson gang, and they would ask you, what is your opinion about those gangs?
This is social pressure and the other thing what we always forget in the things, what are conceding the intelligent or highly trained people is that nobody doesn't know and can everything on the Earth. If we would think the highly trained engineer, that person might be the best in the world as creating things like a nuclear reactor, but that person might not be the conference translator.
The second person would learn other things in education, and this is the thing, what we must always remember when we are thinking about education. But the thing is that there are limits, what people can do. That means that we have only a limited number of neurons, and this means that if we would be top men and women in some areas, we must miss some other areas in life. And one thing what the top men and women are sometimes missing is the cooking.
There are tales that the most brilliant geniuses like J.Robert Oppenheimer and Enrico Fermi could not even cook potatoes, but those men created the first nuclear reactor on the world and took the human race to the atomic age. So the number of skills what people can learn is limited, and this is the thing, what we must always remember. There is one thing, what we always forget when we are thinking about intelligence, and that is what we always think, that person who is interested in high-energy physics is same way interested about investments and follows the marketing statistics.
The problem is that we always identify wealthy people as intelligent people at the same time. Here we are facing the thing, what is called "social pressure". If the person, who own many factories, comes to ask is that person intelligent, we would want to please that person. The factory owner is intelligent, because that person owns a factory, and otherwise if our answers would not please that person, we might kick off from the job. So this is the thing, why we will call great directors as intelligent persons.
The big leaders have a greater influence on the system than normal people, and this is why we are thinking that they are always very intelligent. And the induction thought could be that we are always forgetting that an intelligent person can also be bad. When we are looking at the great leaders, we are forgetting, that those persons might inherit their money and all business partners from the parents.
And in that case, we are facing the thing, that we always believe that people who are spending their time in dinners and lunches in some five-star restaurants in nice suits are automatically more intelligent than some two people who are sitting in a pizzeria. We are living in society, which is full of numbers, and every person in the world want to be intelligent. And one thing what is used as the meter of this kind of things is the success in the working life.
The big salary, nice office, and slips are things, which is making us intelligent. That thing is a dangerous way to think because the world is full of people who are not even metered their level of intelligence. The second thing is that the people, who are working in the high command of the military or the research laboratories might be very intelligent, even they are not wearing slips and suits.
