Intelligence vs. Ego IG: magnifichealth

There should be 2 societies. Those who dont want to evolve and those who do. Let them live that way until they see what the others are doing. They have to figure it out on their own. Half of society never matured, never grew up. Peter Pan Syndrome is real. You see it daily in the emotionally insecure lashing out with tantrums.

Absolutely true & if I get new info/procedure I test it & if it works better I adopt it immediately, if it's worse I tell the person NO THIS is better try it, but dumb people won't even TRY to do the better method & just stick with THEIR way & call me names for not complying

But some people hear “new” information that is completely false, and update their beliefs based on those lies… what do you call that?

@_VashtiKeyys_ This will still go over so many people's head 😂😂😂

The masses have engrained ideologies to their identities. Questioning them,feels like betrayal . So,They'd rather turn a blind eye to their half-seen beliefs,just to preserve their ego. This person would rather protect their ego than seek growth and evolution

Could not have explained it better!!! Intuition is knowing that is constantly evolving and flowing.

Can't disagree. I once thought I should listen to and read the mainstream media news. I learned my lesson and now realized that no.... propaganda is bad for my mental wellbeing.

I used to be Christian until the truth changed my mind. No more blood lust and virgins for me. Also Jesus NEVER said to worship him. STOP BLOODLUST. “Oh the blood of Jesus washing over me….” YUCK YUCK YUCK 🤮

In order to be and feel intelligence, you need to put your beliefs everyday in discussion. Keep asking why.

I completely agree!!! 💯

U just spoke my mind in the most greatest explanation I haven't been able to say..

Intillect >emotion.

Very true, real smarts shine in adaptability, not rigid fact-hoarding. But here's the twist: updating beliefs often triggers cognitive dissonance, that mental clash where new facts battle your core views. It's not just uncomfortable; studies show it can spike actual physical pain, like increased strain on your neck or back as your body tenses against the ego hit. The paradox? True intelligence demands pushing through that ache to evolve, while the "smart" crowd clings to comfort. Ego's a sneaky gatekeeper. #WorthTheParadox

If you CAN’T change your mind, you’re an NPC or a White Walker. Either way you’re soulless.

This is so true. Improvise, adapt and overcome. (A Marine Corps slogan)

Good point Celeste!

The civilian version. I liked it. Life would be so dull if we knew it all.

Lol ppl obsessed w intelligence are not intelligent

And what about the ability to solve problems, speed mind , IQ scores, etc ? Now anyone starts giving new definitions like this or another like "metacognition" etc according to "neuroscientists".

This is true as far as it goes, but can also be taken as an argument for conformity to the narrative of the moment, which is not a sign of intelligence.

Confirmation bias at work!

I mean, that's valid for some people, but not those of us who are always right.

neural plasticity vs hard drive space

You adapt for the greater good.

@conciouscreator We also evolve too. And with evolving means expansion and the ability to lookat something with clear eyes. No cognitive dissonance.

This woman? is right.

Well said.

Twitter gonna shame you for changing your opinion yunno

We're seeing this in real time. Ironically, from many people who like to repeat that MAGA is uneducated because Trump likes his base unintelligent. 😏

Tell that to B.S. (Ben Shapiro) ;)

i change my mind on a daily basis i must be super smart

by the way, continuing to defend a belief that's clearly wrong just makes you look stupid.

Saying it does not make it so. The facts are white males had a 400 year affirmative action head start on all other groups now in this country and are bitching because they feel they are being replaced. No you have to compete. Something you did not have to do for 400 years.
