The 9 Types of Intelligence - What Your Talents Reveal About You

Intelligence is broken down into 9 types of intelligence, also called the nine domains of intelligence. The theory of multiply intelligences was first theorized by developmental psychologist Howard Gardner, in 1983. What other scientists thought were only soft-skills, Gardener realized were actually different types of intelligence. As it turns out, being good at math or languages are not the only two ways to be smart!

When you hear the word “intelligence” you immediately think of someone with a super high IQ. Or, someone who’s book smart or street smart. But, intelligence can mean different things to different people. We all have strengths and weaknesses in different areas, and have the ability to discover, harness and develop our strengths. Yes, talent is intelligence combined with effort! Many talented people spend a great deal of time honing their intellect until it becomes an apparently effortless endeavor on their part.

Watch this video to learn more, so you’ll be able to have a basic understanding of which intelligence you are strong at, and which areas you may need to work a bit more. Yes, you may possess multiple intelligences - since most of us have more than one strength in general.
