To you, what is intelligence?

Intelligence, to me, is more than just book smarts or information you’ve learned in school. Intelligence encompasses everything you’ve learned in life itself, between random facts about the solar system or how to make the perfect panini or paraphrasing Aristotle’s most innovative thoughts or how to drive a car manually or how to correctly demolish a house or install a faucet. Intelligence is the motivation to learn, to think outside of the box, to not care about the ideologies of standardized society and to think for yourself and only yourself. Intelligence is looking at an object in a different perspective each time and analyzing the deeper meaning of it without changing its value or worth.
