IQ tests don't measure a person's intelligence. There are tribes in the Amazon- who have a deep knowledge of their surroundings- but would likely have an IQ of 26 if they were to take the test.
... and the guy from suburban America- who scored 162 on the "IQ" test- would last about three days in the Amazon jungle.

I think having the ability to laugh at yourself is missing from the list. Self-deprecating humor- we all have problems- is important when trying to understand another's perspective.

Exactly! One thing most don't realize is you need to turn off your fear and turn on your survival mode. |

Very true and necessary to recognise your own moments of idiocy...a person can not understand others if they don't know themselves... Must admit to having and appreciating a dark sense of humor... son didn't fall far from the mom...😉 |
