Have you ever thought about what intelligence is? As we all have ideas on many different issues thanks to our environment, I’m sure that all of us at least once questioned what intelligence really is. According to sources, the definition of intelligence is the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills. In addition, the definition of personal qualities, which is linked to intelligence and is another topic that we will touch on, are the characteristics, attributes or personality traits that make up and reflect who you are.
A person determines his characteristic features by the decisions and forms of behavior that he makes while living. And at this stage, intelligence, the definition of which we define as the ability to obtain and apply information, becomes involved in the situation. The more correctly a person makes a decision about what he should do, and whether the things he does are right or wrong, the more his character will be good and decent in the same direction. That is why personal qualities are traits that are influenced by intelligence. That is why, in my opinion, intelligence is something inherent in a person from birth, progresses over time with proper use, or gradually disappears through disuse. In fact, we always classify people as intelligent or not. This makes sense somewhere, but there may also be a wrong situation somewhere. We are all born with different levels of intelligence, and we want to develop this intelligence throughout our lives. Sometimes a person with medium intelligence adds a lot to himself/herself and admires a person with superior intelligence. On the other hand, a very intelligent person cannot even reveal the intelligence he/she has, depending on the environment in which he/she lives and the people around him/her. Therefore, although I think that intelligence is an innate trait, at the same time, people also have the right to develop or dysfunctional this trait throughout their lives. And another issue is personal qualities… I think this issue depends entirely on the choices a person makes for him or herself throughout his life. Creating the right character by correctly using the intelligence given to us is not a genetic trait given to us before we are born. If that were the case, we wouldn’t be held responsible for anything we did as if we did it ourselves because that would be an excuse, like a character given to us and whose choice is not in our hands.
