Intelligence is composed mostly of imagination, insight—things that have nothing to do with reason.

I don’t know about you, but I grew up thinking IQ was the only real measure of intelligence. My brother, sister and I were ranked on an ongoing basis. It wasn’t until much later that I realized there is EQ, or emotional intelligence (which is more my speed vs my brother’s photographic memory that I could never compete with), plus a potential of 8 (and maybe beyond) types of intelligence, according to a Harvard psychologist (spatial, bodily-kinaesthetic, musical, linguistic, logistical-mathematical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalistic). I wish I’d known this a lot earlier, Lol ;) Just sayin’ ;) Hugs. XO
