9 TYPES OF INTELLIGENCE
I found this post on a website and I decided to share in hopes that it may be of benefits to you.

For most people, being intelligent is perceived
as having a lot of useful knowledge and skills
(and sometimes non-useful knowledge and
skills) and being able to apply such knowledge
and skills.
Most people believe that being knowledgeable
and skilled at general and random information is
a sign of being intelligent. There is however
more to being intelligent than simply being
proficient in languages or being good in math.
Let us go over the 9 types of intelligence
identified in Gardener’s theory of multiple
intelligence and try to find the one that best
suits you.

1. Logical-Mathematical Intelligence
This type of intelligence describes superior
inductive, deductive reasoning and calculating
ability. Individuals with logical-mathematical
intelligence possess the ability to think
analytically and conceptually.
You know you have high logical-mathematical
intelligence if:
You are good with numbers and various
tasks that involve quantifying things, such
as mathematical operations and arithmetic
problems.
You enjoy performing experiments and
conducting investigations in order to prove
the hypotheses that you’ve formulated
earlier.
You enjoy playing logic and strategy games,
and you do it often to further hone your
intelligence.
You enjoy the challenge of unraveling
mysteries and solving puzzles.
People with high logical-mathematical
intelligence work best as mathematicians,
analysts, detectives, investigative journalists,
and scientists.

2. Linguistic Intelligence
This intelligence refers to a person’s ability to
use words effectively.
You know you are linguistically intelligent if:
You have a way with words, and can use it
to persuade or convince someone to act in a
certain manner.
You have a rich vocabulary, and you know
which words to use, how and when to use
them.
You like to read a lot, and you may also
want to write a lot.
You enjoy playing word games, or other
similar games that involve the use of words.
You have an easy grasp of other languages
or dialects, even if fluency is not required.
People who demonstrate high linguistic
intelligence include authors, novelists, poets,
journalists, public speakers, and motivational
speakers. To a great extent, politicians are also
deemed to be linguistically intelligent.

3. Visual-Spatial Intelligence
This intelligence is being able to think in 3D.
Having a very active imagination. Most of the
time, you will be drawing on your imagination
when putting this intelligence to use.
You have high visual-spatial intelligence if:
You have a high awareness of your
surrounding environments.
You have very good navigation skills and a
sharp sense of direction.
You enjoy playing with jigsaw puzzles and
games that involve maps and mazes.
You like to draw and work with pictures and
images.
You tend to daydream a lot, creating
scenarios in your head.
A person with visual-spatial intelligence will
function best as a painter, a sculptor, architect,
designers, pilots and seafarers.

4. Naturalist Intelligence
This type of intelligence involves being able to
”read” and understand nature. People with this
type of intelligence have a high sensitivity for all
living and non-living elements in nature.
You have high naturalist intelligence if:
You love nature, and enjoy spending time
outdoors.
You are able to connect easily with animals.
You have a knack for raising animals or
making plants grow (what people call “green
thumb”)
People with naturalist intelligence work best as
botanists, agriculturists, forest and park rangers.

5. Musical Intelligence
Do you have a talent for dissecting the elements
and details of sound? Then you should count
yourself as one of the intelligence ones when it
comes to musicality. If you are very sensitive to
rhythm and sound, then you possess this type
of intelligence.
You have high musical intelligence if:
You can discern sounds and break them
down – their pitch, rhythm, tone and timber
– easily.
You love – and can recognize, create, and/
or reflect – on music.
You are comfortable with music or sound
playing in the background even when you
are doing other things.
You are highly sensitive to even the smallest
sound, so that you can hear sounds that
others miss.
People with musical intelligence function best
as musicians, composers, vocalists, composers,
conductors, sound mixers and sound engineers.

6. Existential Intelligence
This may sound too deep for some people, but
tackling existentialism issues and questions is
also a form of intelligence. This denotes a deep
sensitivity and a high capacity to tackle very
serious questions, combined with a passion to
pursue the answers to these questions.
You have high existential intelligence if:
You are genuine in your curiosity to answer
questions like “why do we live?”, “why do we
die?” and “what happens to us after death?”,
etc.
You demonstrate high sensitivity when it
comes to matters related to human
existence.
People with existential intelligence are most
suited in jobs in psychology and theology.
Motivational speakers are also expected to
possess this type of intelligence in great
amounts.

7. Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence
Usually, people who have superior hand-eye
coordination do very well in sports.
You have a high bodily-kinesthetic intelligence
if:
You have a keen sense of body awareness,
knowing what you are capable of and
recognizing your physical limits.
You can communicate well using body
language, with gestures and actions that can
convey the message you intend to deliver to
the recipients.
You have no issues with physical contact,
since you are comfortable touching other
people or being touched.
You have, at least, a very good sense of
timing when it comes to performing physical
tasks and activities.
You are good with your hands, such that
you can handle tools and machines with a
high degree of deftness, combined with an
economy of movement.
You like making or creating something with
your hands
People who possess bodily-kinesthetic
intelligence are usually athletes, dancers,
acrobats and stage performers. Craftsmen, or
those who create highly detailed crafts and
products, are also known to demonstrate
impressive mind and body union. But perhaps
the best example of somebody who is good
with their hands is a surgeon, whose every
action – no matter how small – inside the
operating room, will dictate how a patient’s life
will go.

8. Interpersonal Intelligence
Interpersonal intelligence refers to your ability to
sense other people’s feelings, as well as read
their motives. They say that you have above
average interpersonal skills if you possess good
communication skills – both verbal and non-
verbal. That is usually the first thing that you
will notice in a person with high interpersonal
intelligence.
You have high interpersonal intelligence if:
You can easily spot distinctions or
differences among people, and you also find
it easy to recognize them even in a large
crowd.
You have a wide circle of friends and
acquaintances, and you are comfortable
spending time with other people.
You are sensitive to the moods and
temperament of other people.
You are able to look at things from various
points of view or perspectives, instead of
just sticking to your own angle.
People with high interpersonal intelligence will
do great as teachers, social workers, and
politicians. Stage and film actors also use their
interpersonal intelligence portray any character.

9. Intra-personal Intelligence
Self-awareness is also a form of intelligence.
Intra-personal intelligence involves knowing
what you feeling and why you are feeling it. It
also involves knowing exactly what you want
and need. Intra-personal intelligence also
involves possessing an appreciation and respect
for human condition.
You have high intra-personal intelligence if:
You are self-motivated, meaning you tend to
put yourself first when assessing various
situations you come across.
You are strong-willed and independent, and
have no issue learning by yourself.
You are fully aware of your feelings, and you
take action to planning and directing your
life, without primarily depending on others to
dictate what you should do.

You tend to be shy and introverted,
preferring to keep to yourself and have solo
moments for self-reflection
People with high intra-personal intelligence are
those who would be most comfortable as
spiritual leaders, psychologists, guidance
counselors, and even philosophers.
Is it possible to possess all nine? Yes, there is
definitely a high probability of that. In fact, some
even claim that we all have to a certain degree,
all of the nine types of intelligence. It’s just a
matter of some types of intelligence being
higher or more apparent than others.

Have you found your most prominent type of
intelligence?

Knowing myself imma put myself in 1,3,4,5,9

Let's see 1,3,5,8,7

That's a nice write-up

I'm 5,8 nd 9

I'm non of them

I don't have any.. now come and beat me

Visual-spacial
Interpersonal
Intra-personal

Intelligence.

3, 5, 7, 8, 9

where's FINANCIAL INTELLIGENCE?

mansakhalifa:


I would lump that under Logical-Mathematical Intelligence. Like a subset of the broader Logical-Mathematical Intelligence.

Here is why I think so and it is pretty simple; If you are not deeply calculation then you can not be efficient at handling money or issues concerned with finances.

Not really how to calculate money - tellers, cashiers, accountants do that - I mean how to make and invest money, how to manage money. The intelligence that most of those lottery and jackpot winners lack. They win large sums of money but go broke in 2 years or less but Emeka who started with a carton of gala and a carton of coke which he got on credit is now a millionaire 2 years later. How to get money and how to make money work for you is financial intelligence I mean. It is not taught in our schools....

nice post.....the only one most ppl possess now is sexual intelligence

What about mental and behavioral intelligence? I think they fall under natural intelligence. As in Leonardo Bloomfield and Noam Chomsky kind of.

What of pussy intelligence and scamming intelligence

Nice1

oneda:

Actually I personally think Leonardo Bloomfield's intelligence is under linguistic intelligence, while Naom Chomsky is under linguistic and existential intelligence.

Unfortunately, I possess only one of the above. And... that's number 7.

I've always been a decent athlete- not trying to "toot my horn here".

As for those in category number 6, I hear they die pretty young from all that "deep thinking" . Like hell, why would anybody want to know where we go when we die

Pointless. Count me out.

Many pH girls have No 2...uniport girls especially.

No emotional and financial intelligence in your list. Those 2 intelligence are key in our every day life

I do think emotional intelligence is under interpersonal intelligence if you read it again you will find out that the two relates
