Mindfulness: But reading is blood and sweat too... Lucky you if you actually enjoy reading all materials . Most intelligent people read. The time it takes them to read and assimilate and then interpret what they've read is what now differentiates them from your regular person. They just need a much shorter time The knowledge doesn't just fall on them. They must have read other materials somewhere. 1 Like |

eyinjuege: Why would I read all materials? It is not even possible to. I read whatever calls my attention and maintains it. I love reading. I am neither sweating nor bleeding when I read. There were classes in my school and university days when I was sweating and bleeding and others which I was looking forward to with great eagerness and enjoying so much that time flew. Guess which ones I scored better at? 2 Likes |

Mindfulness:My interpretation of the line sweating and bleeding from the other post was that knowledge doesn't just fall on you. You must have come into contact with a a theory/idea/information/material. Whether you just skimmed through it, or heard people discussing it, or you enjoyed reading it or not there must have been some effort on your part however minimal to get the knowledge. 2 Likes |

What if I told you all that Intelligence is never inherited but continuos brain programming and modification of the sum total of nature, nocture, family socialization, imagination, stored memory turned behaviour, learnt habits and behavioural pattern, reading and observation, first hand life experiences, LANGUAGE and acquired education(learning, unlearning and relearning). This is why, A Gazzuzz with auto knowledge can never be a Seun with web programming knowledge but a Ymodulus with diverse knowledge can easily be a Gazzuzz and Seun simulteneously. 1 Like 1 Share |

3 yrs later the thread made FP Delay is never denial! Well to the topic intelligence is inherited majorly from the from the mother (X chromosomes) So men pls stay away from senseless slay queen if you don't want ur children to be dumb! Another is environmental factors, you don't expect a child who grew up in an ELD states like zamfara (sorry) to exhibit intelligence at its full potential 6 Likes 1 Share |

Intelligence is not hereditary and is teachable. The problem we have in this country is parents (and sadly teachers) assume a child is either smart or dull. As such they don't bother to imbibe in kids the skills they can use to excel book-wise and leave them to their own devices. Books-smart is not a true form of intelligence. Intelligence in its rawest form is knowing when one is hungry and acting on the impulse. It is as simple as that. Man has only managed to complicate the simple just like we do with every other thing. Any organism which gets hungry can learn tricks. Check around for animals humans have domesticated, every trick we teach them is forced using their desire for food. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Rapmoney: Fallacy!!! There is no family without brilliant or dull persons as u may like to call it even tho I don’t believe for a second anybody is dull. It’s a factor of environment, upbringing and gene. Even with good genes u can be useless if u don’t put in the effort or ur environment works against u and does not enhance ur capabilities. Nobody is absolutely stupid so a relatively dull person with right training can be the smartest. Gene alone is not a huge factor or determinant. 3 Likes 1 Share |

donbenedict: Lol, how come intelligence is built through genes?Gene is a product of genetics and genetics is a science of hereditary. Intelligence is built based on your exposure, but you can't be exposed to things if your grey matters don't accept them Simply put, intelligence is gotten via hereditary and built up by your environmental exposure. No one will know what they don't read, hear, listen to, see, and taught-exposure. But ability to juxtapose, understand and put into use is inherited. Have u asked why a child who hasn't known much say a child of two years old , do things better and different from other kids? 6 Likes 2 Shares |
