Your Goals Must Meet Your Intellectual Capacity

Intellect is your Super Power

First of all, let me tell you this, there is nothing on this planet that you cannot achieve no matter how difficult it is. Man is destined to reach his goal eventually.

Those who reach the summit earlier while others get stranded know the correct direction from early on as the journey starts. This journey is not about physical travel even though that is not much different from the skill I’m going to talk about. This skill is about navigating your way through the correct intellectual capacity to reach your goals.

People often miscalculate the relationship between success and intellectual capacity. One can find lots of people who are great at certain things while at the same time they don’t know how to communicate effectively and influence others. It might not hinder their way up to a great job but it can certainly cut off their chances of reaching the highest level in any organization that only lay after great communication skills.

To gain maximum benefits, one must need to articulate skills relatively on the intellectual side that met the goals and ambitions one has in life. It is easy to read and ignore but hard to act on it.

Picture this in your mind:

To climb a certain height on Mount Everest, one must calculate its implications before starting the adventure. You cannot climb Mount Everest because you heard from any random source that it’s the tallest mountain on this planet. You have to actually strategize the whole adventure, find safe routes and shortcuts, look at the weather and temperature, and much more than that. This process of brainstorming is a practice to up-level your intellectual capacity to decide to climb Everest. Without reaching the level of intellect that one needs to have to climb Mount Everest, it’s impossible to climb it. Your climb would be successful if you planned correctly based on the exact level of intellect needed to execute it.

Similarly, to get your dream job or pass the exam, you need to reach a certain intellectual level where the job exists or the exam be cracked. It would be hard to achieve your goals when in your mind, you're thinking about Mercedes; however, doubts don't let you think further from Suzuki Mehran.

Emily Elizabeth Dickenson: The greatest Poet

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all, - And sweetest in the gale is heard; And sore must be the storm That could abash the little bird That kept so many warm. - I’ve heard it in the chilliest land, And on the strangest sea; Yet, never, in extremity, It asked a crumb of me. In the thorns, we found strength and in flowers we found pain. That is the situation you caught in when you read the lines of Emily Dickenson. The finest poet of the 19 th century enlightened with the figments of death and immortality in her words. Emily is a great American poet and deserves to be known across the globe for her art. Her writing had brought her to a point where there was no fear to be afraid of. Not even her death. America at that time was facing some identity challenges as women were yet to be emancipated from their Kitchens and there were no vote ri...

Steal like an artist by Austin Kleon

Book Cover (Source: Tapan Desai) Summary (informal) Everyone wants to become something in his life. There’s no single formula to achieve one’s desired destination. In this rapidly changing information climate, everything has become more competitive and less rewarding for those who do not pay more attention to details. It is healthy to settle one’s mind to steal ideas productively from those who have experimented with them successfully. There’s no harm in stealing ideas as there’s nothing as new to the world today given the scale of information exchange around the globe due to the Internet. Since everything is already available on Google, one must go there and copy from authentic sources. Make changes in it and sell it to the world. While you are working on the project, keep an eye on wrongs that might discredit the efforts. Copying from a single person is plagiarism, but doing the same thing from more than one is research. A good ar...

New Year's Gift - 2022

Waqar Ahmed | The Productivity Science What would be a better gift than changing personal thoughts from being negative to a positive person? It is okay to be cynical, it allows us to vent out our anger, but that’s not the permanent solution to a Human’s mental frame. We need to have a peaceful mind to make better judgments about our own life for the long run. That’s why it is important to have some positive life aspects. Without positivity, it would not be an easier job to find the truth and make the right decisions. The reality of life is deeply connected with the nature of reality, and without any pursuit of truth, we cannot find reality in life. This year, let’s begin by making this resolution that, no matter what, I will always find something positive about everything. It will help get rid of the trash (useless thoughts) inside of our minds and make us a better version of ourselves.
