You've gotten the message that your intellectual abilities come from your parents and their parents.
You've probably come to believe that there are certain things you'll never be good at, such as working with numbers, or visualizing, or reading, or working with other people.
There are many examples of people who weren’t very strong in the things school values but who have gone on to make major contributions to our world–
Leonardo da Vinci if alive today would likely be put in a class for learning disabled people. He had trouble with reading, writing, speaking, and doing arithmetic calculations. And yet he is probably one of the most gifted people who have ever lived—poet, sculpture, musician, painter, architect, geologist, engineer, botanist, philosopher, physiologist, anatomist, and astronomer all wrapped up on one person!

Henry Ford had difficulty reading and remembering basic facts. To compensate, he surrounded himself with men who were able to produce the appropriate facts and figures when needed.
Hans Christian Anderson, one of the world’s most gifted storytellers, had difficulty reading and writing.
Nelson Rockefeller became a accomplished extemporaneous speaker partly because of his difficulties in reading the printed text of his speeches.
Albert Einstein is one of the most well known of these who were not considered very smart by the usual intelligence standards but whose scientific contributions may have more far-reaching implications than any other scientist of the past century.
Intelligence is not fixed and static at birth! In the past we thought that our intelligence was more or less set at birth by heredity.
We thought it could be assessed through different kinds of I.Q. test's, which would tell us how smart we were. The I.Q., we thought, would reveal what an individual’s intellectual possibilities were.
However, the so-called intelligence tests do not take into account the many different environmental and cultural factors which effect the development of our intellectual capabilities.
Many experts now feel that intelligence has been defined too narrowly. We are all much, much more than our IQ ever gives us credit for!
Intelligence can be taught, learned, and improved! Because our intelligence capabilities are part of our physical and mental make up at birth, they can be improved and strengthened at any age and at almost any ability level.
There are simple things we can do which will strengthen our intelligence skills–much like what we do to improve and expand any skill in our lives. Generally, the more we practice the better we become.
We can learn to be more intelligent, in more ways, and on more levels of our lives than we ever thought possible before!
We are smart in many ways not just one! And, what is more, these different kinds of “smarts” are available to us right now!
This is what we’re talking about when we talk about having “multiple intelligences” or "multiple learning styles". There are many ways we know what we know in our lives. And there are many things we do to help us understand, to gain knowledge, and to learn.
And what's even more exicting is that we were born with these intelligences already latent within us!
