LIFE

What is the real-world definition of IQ?

IQ or Intelligence Quotient is a measure of a person’s reasoning ability to gauge how well someone can use information and logic to answer questions or make predictions. In short, it is the ability to solve problems and adapt to new situations. Knowing a little bit about upcoming situations from real life experience frees up brainpower. This allows our brain to solve problems faster. Memorizing mantras, phrases, scriptures, verses, stories, and quotes force our brain to really work, thus making it easier to navigate through life and the stronger our foundation for learning will be. If you memorize and discuss the quotes in this book and live by them, they can help make you achieve a highly successful life.

The book definition of IQ is the measure of intelligence that is adjusted to age. A person can find out their IQ by taking a written test on short-term memory, analytical thinking, and natural mathematical ability to solve problems. The result is a measure of your book level of intelligence. However, a test that measures book smarts does not measure street smarts nor indicate the skills needed to survive in the jungle of life. Book smarts are not always enough to help one climb out of a place such as South Central Los Angeles. Nevertheless, developing problem-solving abilities is always a great path to living the life you wish to lead.

Intelligence levels are graded by a set of standardized tests or subtests designed to assess human intelligence and not survival skill intelligence. The United States currently ranks 24th in IQ results. These standardized tests are not the full measure of preparing our young people for the unknown elements of real life. There are no points given in these tests for wisdom, social intelligence, active listening, or knowing mantras, rhymes, phrases, quotes, short stories, or spiritual scriptures, nor do they fully prepare our youth to be future leaders. Please use the power of memorizing phrases and short stories as the blueprint for your life’s purpose, future goals, and ultimate happiness.

Aside from your IQ there is another measure to consider. It is EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE which can be defined as the capacity to know oneself, know others, develop self-awareness and build emotional leadership skills. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE should be developed every day by using ACTIVE LISTENING skills and being SELF-AWARE. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE derives from our personal experience with other people while learning from our successes and failures in social settings.

SOCIAL INTELLIGENCE is more often defined by the group of words below:
