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.

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 artist always credits his work to those from w

Why reading books is important?

There can be various aspects to this question. However, I will stick to a few points to convey to your mind why reading is an important exercise. Human is social being and to understand the world we need to learn new information constantly.  The learning must be slow and fast. No one can learn all the information available out there at once. For Humans to learn and that too authentic, a companion/teacher is required. Books can be trustworthy teachers in our lives. As we know, the human brain is a unique engineering tool. We can see things and make a judgment about them. We can hear the voice and make a particular opinion about it. We can walk on the ground and make an analogy of how it’s different from other parts of the world. We continuously improvise our ideas as we get updated information passing through our heads. This trait is unique and makes us better than Chimpanzee. Our minds require a continuous flow of information, and this information can be about anything, even the color

7 lessons I learned from the Al Chemist

Lesson #1:- Humans are tested with calamities and challenges to build a stronger intellectual ground where they can protect their lives and become able to create a better world for future generations.  Those who risked their lives and followed their dreams, they have got the victory. And those who did not risk, and played it safe,  merely stopped where they needed to start. Lesson #2:- Santiago in the search of his legend (true inner self) encountered challenges and a few close calls to death. In the search for treasure, he fearlessly bids on his life by selling his sheep to an old King joins a crystal shop in an unknown part of Africa, and finally embarks on the longest journey towards the Pyramids of Egypt.  His passion to find the unknown treasure based on his audacious belief in omens led him to overpower all the negative forces that could have stopped him from achieving his legend. Quote “If you believe in yourself worthy of the thing you fought so hard to get, then you become
