It's so good that you're going back to study. As far as having humility and not being afraid to "make a fool" out of yourself or being stupid, I think that is true. Too often we make people constantly show unstoppable strength and total correctness.

Not to mention, all Olympic athletes have made mistakes so many times, before they reached their current state and even know, a slip-up happens. Yeah, there differences in abilities between people, but everyone has intelligence in different ways. Some people are book smart, but some people are intelligent in other ways, in social ways, in speech, in abilities, in decision-making, in business. You can't judge someone so easily.

Intelligence is speed. It's how fast you figure things out. It also has a component in memory as well. But it's basically computational speed. Also who would come out publicly and say they're smart? That's totally crazy. People can surmise what they are if they're intelligent because they can notice others around them at different levels, but to come out and say this is like wearing a shirt with your salary on it. It's uncouth and opens you up for criticism.
@@AnLittleAlex Look up the Dunning Kruger Effect. It's basically what you're talking about. Also, most deeper intellectual pursuits are very conjectural, with the idea of empiricism being largely a false positive beyond a certain point. For example, if physicists were honest, they would say "your guess is as good as mine." to most of the ideas discussed today.
It would be nice to be stupid. True intelligence breeds extreme awareness. True intelligence shows how little we are capable of knowing. Intelligence is a curse. It's not something to be proud of. Ignorance is bliss is so true.
Stupid people think they know everything, wanting to learn is a sign of intelligence. I wish I felt that way when I was younger. As far as what is intelligence, watch videos or read up on multiple intelligence theory. I didn't even know that until I took some psych courses.
Sounds like me...and...I'm a low-tech guy...who at times, think I was born too late...should...have come down to this rock as a member of the Greatest Generation!

Hi, Alex. You are not stupid or dumb. Wherever you are and whatever you want to do, you belong, there is no imposter. But whatever you choose to do in or with your life, always prioritize your safety, your health, and your happiness (well-being). Stay sweet, stay lovely, and stay Alex! Pops

You’re not stupid, goofy 🤗, you just facilitate your right (creative/artistic) hemisphere more than the left one (logical/cold calculating) , I can see that by how your loathe your math skills, but you talk eloquently and with high emotional intelligence, meaning, you are probably are as smart as any famous philosopher/historian/psychologist/biologist/linguistics professor etc. someone who doesn’t rely on hard science (that often involves math) In other words, if you’re familiar with D&D Your stats are: INT < WIS Meaning… You’re Wise AF 🍷🐒 (And people like us will always struggle with freaking numbers 😔 it’s literally genetics)
As a person who is very good academically, i can say that i am very often completely and utterly stupid and it is very fun Just don't take yourself too seriously Sometimes you're just dead wrong To deny that is true stupidity
Einstein said imagination is more important than intelligence. So, intelligence without imagination is stupid!! Because they can't use their intelligence to figure anything out, or create something new. Book smart, but real world stupid. Being open minded is related to imagination, because you can see, or be open to, other ways of doing things. I agree. A truly intelligent person will never say they know everything. They are always searching for answers. They may not even know the question! But they're always searching and learning. As an INTP, I learn a lot by observation. One trait of the INTP is they are a natural bullshit detector. They know when someone is lying, or doing something stupid, even if they may know nothing about the subject. It just feels wrong, and they will call them out. I've learned a lot by watching people do things wrong, so I don't have to do it. WHY should I makes mistakes when I can watch someone else do it, and learn from it?? Just because someone claims to be an expert in their field, that doesn't mean they actually know what they are doing, they might be just copying what they say someone else do, without reasoning out if it the right way to do it or not. This world has way too many copy cats. Brainless morons, Lemmings, jumping off the cliff because everyone else is doing it.
i dont think anyone should strive to be stupid... there is a huge difference between being okay with being wrong and actively embracing a reality of ignorance. We have a moral duty to act responsibly for the sake of both ourselves and our communities
What you know is only half of intelligence. The other part is something like raw pattern recognition/comprehension of complexity. So you might not know math because you never really learned it, but that doesn't mean you aren't intelligent and couldn't learn it at a high level. Intelligent people are like everybody else: there are never-ending things they can learn. The difference is they have access to learning things that unintelligent people can't. Intelligence is also a curse though, since an intelligent person is statistically... a freak. So they are more likely to be lonely and unable to communicate their ideas because most people won't understand them lol in general, they seem to be less happy as a result.
You use the Maryland state flower black eyed Susan's " on your landscaping which are naturally self seeding and that is smart. It also shows you have great taste
People are different. People are intelligent in different areas. But one sure indicator of an unintelligent person is arrogance. There are certain truths in life that are objective. 5+9=14, lobster is delicious, Germany is in Europe, etc. But to be shut out from others opinions or an inability to be flexible on your own is a sure way to go through life being as dumb as possible. Don't strive to be dumb. Strive to be open and flexible. You don't sound stupid. You sound very emotionally intelligent. And anyone with any authority would tell you that any intelligent person is above all emotionally intelligent
I grew up as a kid going to a special school for kids with learning disabilities. I've always tried to learn more and more because I don't want to be dumb. As a adult I still want to be a intellectual person, but I am not .
Knowledge and intelligence are two different things. Stupidity is not making mistakes or not knowing something. Being intelligent is not assuming that one does not contain conceptual errors. Intelligence is the ability to be able to conceptualize different aspects of reality. Being very intelligent is being able to conceptualize aspects of reality that most people find difficult to understand and do so quickly. Stupidity is lacking the intellectual resources to understand aspects of reality. Knowledge is the sum of concepts that are most likely to be correct. Lacking the resources to be able to understand reality is not funny nor is it a desirable state.

Open-mindedness, wisdom; these are core intelligences. You want to be intelligent at the core, what you are describing isn't whether you want to be intelligent or stupid. What you are describing is not wanting to be intellectually driven for the most part. That doesn't equate to wanting to be stupid. Trust me, you don't want to be stupid. Being stupid makes life harder for you and for most people around you. I hope that makes sense. Likewise, wanting to be stupid may result from you being quite intelligent, but not intelligent enough to figure out what you want isn't going to bring you happiness, but difficulty. Remove all the success which was good or somewhat intelligent from your life up until the point you are at. Remove the money or wealth from it, add difficulty. It's nothing fun. You want to be intelligent at the core, but not exactly "know everything / intelligent at the niche subjects", such as math, let's say. 😊 Though, I don't know why you would want that either. What you are describing seems to me as if "being intelligent is somehow controlling your life", where you don't exactly want to control stuff. Now, that would be a fair point to make and want. As for my advice how to deal with said issue, I'd say be spiritual and perhaps find wisdom in teachings of the son of God. (Not saying that you should necessarily become religious, since faith and religion aren't the same.) Learn acceptance as a divine principle, practice it! You will be happier, if that's what you seek. 😄 I hope this helps.
