people have all sorts of different "intelligences".
i have had a vet out to my place who was better spoken then Kevin Rudd. very polished and professional looking.
but he was there to stitch up a horse and he seriously suggested we give it a general aneasthetic for his own safety (at a cost of 2000 dollars).
i told him no and got another old retired vet to come out.
this chap speaks utter gibberish. if you met him in the street, you would probably give him a dollar thinking he was homeless. he sat down on a chair and just whistled until the horse came over, then he politely put in the stitches without even local aneasthetic and hit me up for $80.
i have very little time for people who can "talk the talk" but cant "walk the walk".
If you are a man, on your purpose in
life, then you will be growing and you will be capable of leadership.
And if you are on your purpose in life, then you will be a man of massive action and you may well be a man who talks gibberish. So what, you learn and grow and go up by taking action , being observant and then adjusting and taking more action.
So trump talks gibberish.
He still has years of brutal training and literally 100's of 1000's of reference experiences that have honed his intelligence in other areas.
He certainly had the intelligence to take out the established powers and beat them at their own game.
when a countries national interest depends on these sort of skills , far more then on "pleasant speeches", he is the right man for the job.
you are literally the guy who derides THINKING. It is hard to take you seriously. It is hard to take you anywhere except a padded room.
Incorrect, i deride 'thinking" as a sensible pursuit, in and of itself.
What leads to people developing skills is not thinking , but it is "taking action", "trying something" and then being observant of the results, sitting down and reflecting (ie thinking) and changing the course of your actions.
If you just "think" , you defy one of the universal laws.
If you just soak up knowledge like a sponge but never use it, you defy the law of "use" and you will be punished for it.
Particularly for a young guy, it is action which will get results and action which will get growth.
Even the very creative companies now recognise this.
Google and microsoft have programs for staff training in meditation.
What is meditation?
It is the ability to "calm the mind" and "stop the incessant chatter" of "thought".
Only by not thinking do new realisations come.
they come thru action and they come thru moving to a higher level of consciousness.
Even einstein said this.
"a problem cannot be solved in the paradigm in which it was created".
You cannot solve something by thinking about it.
You need to take action.
I have no doubt that many peoples minds never shut down, there is a refrigerator hum of thought going on 24 hours a day. they do nothing but think....and they achieve nothing, they go nowhere, they are rats on the hamster wheel. Take a bit of action, Mr Rat, go explore your environment, use the world as your own research lab and get out of "group THINK"
