I consider myself a veryintelligent guy*. Please don’t think that I am bragging, because this is badtoo. I get irritated when people throw BS at my face, or when they don’t arguebased on logic. This freaks the crap out of me.
Note that there are various typesof intelligence:
I am talking about the commonperception we have of intelligence here.
I think that what really made meimprove my intelligence over the years was theexposure I had to the following:
1. Intellectualparents. My parents are both teachers,and they use used refined language, with a wide spectrum of vocab.
2. Internet(intellectual) forums.When I was younger, I use to be all over the best internet forums. GrammarNazis actually were very helpful. Today I have Quora and that suffices.
3. Books. I always loved to read. As a kid, I used to spendentire days reading. These days, I am taking on a challenge of reading andreviewing 100 books on personal finance in 10 months: Books).Choose your favorite topics, and go for the most reputable and best writtenbooks on those topics.
4. Newspapers. Read the best, most well-written newspapers of yourcountry.
5. People. Engage in conversations with intellectual people.You know what they say, in afew years from now, you’ll be the sum of what you are now, the books you readand the people you met.
