Street smart, book smart…heart smart?
What is intelligence? We often think that our intellectual capacity has been learned either from our experiences, or from our education. But after studying so much, experiencing so much, and subsequently developing a strong sense of intuition, what happens to our intellectual capacity?
In a world where standardized learning is so deeply valued, where does intuition and spiritual intelligence fit in? Being heart smart is the ability to see through any situation due to clarity of the mind in the present moment.
The more we study the meaning of life, the more we leave behind our street smarts and book smarts. That is, the more we understand about the world, the less the trivial things of the world matter to us because we can see right through them. Everything we once learned in school does not matter because now we know the truth. But how do we survive now that we have become heart smart?
Once you have developed a strong sense of intuition, you can now question what you once learned from studying and experience. This is your chance to break the mold. Be a visionary. Because a lot of what we believe to be true now has been distorted over the years. So if you can see clearly, help others with correcting their vision.
So are you street smart? Book smart? Or heart smart? And how will you break the mold?
