IQ is actually a very poor way of measuring "intelligence". People can be genius' s in a wide range of areas- for example a mathematician and BMX champion are geniuses at what they do in their own spheres- why should being able to work with figures and complex formuale mark anyone as more "worthy" than someone who can exert mastery over their own bodies, fears and be creative? The best measure for intelligence is actually "Emoitional Intelligence"

We are born mostly dependent.  We move then towards more independence.  However there are no absolutes.  Each individual is unique.  So we will always be dependant upon others to some extent, as others will be dependant upon us.  On the other hand, we think for ourselves and are responsible for our own decisions and the consequences.\n\nAnother way to look at the picture is to say that we move from less responsibility towards more responsibility for our own lives.

unmotivated people.  I have encountered people that I once thought were dumb but given the opportunity and platform to voice there opinions were actually much brighter than once anticipated.  We have to understand that a lot of people out there have either a lot of book sense or a lot of common sense but unfortunately don't have a very good mix of both.  I err on the side of common sense but when motivated can be very intellectual or better put will showcase my knowledge.  So I definitely think this is a motivational issue.  And if it is money that is the motivational factor which I suspect it very well is in most situations then until some is paid what he/she feels they are worth you won't see their true abilities.  To a side note though,  I do feel that too many people get jobs based on who they know rather than what they know.  Welcome to the spectrum- where does your light shine though?

These people  feel insecure about themselves and try to make themselves feel better by putting down others. There are also  people who interfere in anothers life because they feel that anyone different from themselves must be made to be more like them. The fact is, people will always be resentful of those who are different, because of fear, which is generated from ignorance. Or because they're just plain jealous.  Just be happy in who you are, because you are the only person you've got to live for.

I never thought about thinking so much. I think that everyone thinks about everyones thoughts and wonders what they are thinking. Thinking maybe they aren't thinking anything an then in themselves think about how they are thinking about nothing. But if they were really thinking about nothing then they really are thinking about something even if they are only thinking about someone else not thinking thoughts of thinking. \n\nYo!  You are Deep!!

I believe tat some children are geared by their parents to just be acheavers and that's there reality. I believe its the attitude of you have to be the best. Therefore, you must do all you can to be. Even if that means not getting envolved in stuff that would supposely hinder there progress\nand success.

Somebody once told me that we think more about ourselves than anyone else does. The fact is, people are so darn caught up with themselves, they're barely taking notice of anything else. Try this exercise:\n\nThink about someone you know and your thoughts about that person. Now, do this with a few more people you know, some you like, some you dislike. How much do your thoughts about this person affect their day to day life? Probably very little. Now turn the scenario around. See...their thoughts about you really don't affect your day to day life either. So a waiter is rude to you...who cares...stand up for yourself...will you ever see that person again in your life? Probably not so it doesn't matter what they think.\n\nAnd you also have an advantage over many people... you know you're attractive and smart. So now just act like it!! You're the only one who has to live with yourself so it only matters what you think about you!!\n\n:)

This question is to easy to answer;\n\nthose individuals that you are asking about have no respect for themselves... they recognize themselves as potential failures and therefore; they need to feel better about themselves... \n\nThe plain truth is that after the above thought goes through their unexercised brain..they haven't the ability, or knowledge to express their thoughts in any other fashion.\n\nYou, on the other hand, must be sensitive, caring, thoughtful and highly intelligent....thanx for making our world a better place in which to live.

How come he still lives with his parents? That's what I want to know...\n\nI think people like him are just adrenaline junkies. He could be smart in a street-sense kind of way but not likely book-smart.\n\nBut you never know until you actually get to know the person, not just by watching 30 min of their life every week.

The same thing happens to me, and I don't really understand either.  It might be their conceitedness, but it really depends on the person.  It takes a while to find a good person, so keep at it.  Think of it as a way to filter out the bad friends and colleagues; going for the best instead.  If they don't talk to you, maybe they're having a bad day, or even going through the same thing as you.

Becasue most people think only of themselves.  There are still a few out there that care about others more than themselves and are willing to help, but good hearted people are few and far between.  Just keep being a good person and hopefull you will encourage others to do the same.

People find comfort in believing others are like them. They created a "normal" way of acting outwardly but inside everyone is still unique. (being different isn't the bad thing though, lying to yourself to "fit in" is)

I think people who try to blend in can be more dangerous in the long run, simply because you can't readily recognize the situations in which they will take advantage of others or act in socially irresponsible ways.\n\nThey're also more apt to go along with the crowd, even if the crowd is wrong.\n\nThose who are more up-front about being their own individual person and not prone to groupthink are at least a little more honest up-front, and you can trust that when they do something, it's because they believe it's right rather than because it's merely convenient or safe.\n\nI think some people are put-off by the non-conformists simply because they don't come across as "team players" or seem to not care about how other people feel or think sometimes. \n\nWhat I've learned in life is that sometimes it's okay to fit in, if I don't have an integrity issue about it, and so earn "capital" that I can spend on the issues that really matter to me. Letting people know I empathize with them or aren't out to just buck the system in general gives me more room to push back when I see something that really needs to be fought against.

I agree with whoever told you.  Everyone has the ability but not all utilize it or develop it.  An open mind and heart is needed, those who have neither will never know.

How can you normalize something that is normal.  Just because someone is different than you, does not make them abnormal.

Yeah… Well, they just don’t understand why can’t we think their way. It’s understandable. I mean, if you were so sure in your right, it would be hard to accept why others think differently.
