Yep, you are smart.
If you always got A's in school, and you have an IQ that the Mensa Society is rushing to include in their group, you may already know this.
If not, however, you may wonder how I know you are smart. Because Howard Gardner said so.
Howard Gardner came up with 7 types of intelligence. Yep, there is actually more than one way to be smart. Go through the following and see what jumps right out at you and says "Wow, that's me!"
Howard Gardner’s Categories of Intelligence:
Interpersonal

Verbal-linguistic
Lkes to read and/or can pick up languages easily

Musical

Did you even find that you fit into more than one category? See how smart you really are?
We'll look closer at these next week. Meanwhile, never forget - You ARE a SWAN
