IQ is everything

In last 14 years of service in educational sector, I have noticed that it all boils down to IQ level of a student. Monetary power can get one student to a best private institute but it does not mean that the best facilities can uplift him or her over those years. It is my observation that one succeeds accordingly as per the IQ level. It is the responsibility of the individual to keep working on IQ level. After some time, you will be considered smart amongst others. Every one of us has a particular domain in our educational field. We need to be at least above average to be able to garner some respect from the fellow folks. If we cannot do so, what is the point of being a human? Apart from our domain, we need to keep ourselves abreast with the things happening around us for situational awareness because these things are going to impact us sooner or later in our life. Many people do not feel like to know the general knowledge things but it does help you a lot in many situations. It helps you to start a conversation and you will be considered someone who has knowledge. Nobody likes to talk to a dumb person. He will be always laughed at even if he may have millions of dollar in his bank account. It is important to know that everybody wants some respect at some point of life.

Coming to students, one has to keep on working on IQ level. How will you know that you are lacking in it? If you are not able to take part in a discussion that really impacts you and your future then you definitely need to work on it. If you are unable to crack any competitive environment then also you have to do some soul searching.

By learning if you keep tabs on trends, you will not end up being a fool. Now let us analyze the present situation of AI & self driving cars which are coming in a big way to our lives. The world is moving towards adopting these technologies so it will definitely impact us in future. Companies will need less people because AI and automated software will surely eat away a lot of the jobs which human used to do. So, we have to reorient our education to fit ourselves in the future. Sooner or later self driving cars will take driving jobs and people who are skilled in driving have to look in different directions because they will work 24 hours at a less pay which will not be sustainable to humans. Similarly, government policies also do affect us. Suppose, you are having a good industrial policy for your country, you will have a better future. Similarly, in every respect, you can expand your knowledge.

Now question is "how can we increase our IQ level?" Learn about the things impacting you and try to think critically about those issues. Gradually, you will develop knowledge. One should keep in mind that it is gradual process and let it develop that away otherwise you will get bored. Soak philosophies, ideas and arguments in bits and pieces, you will be a wise person.
