Story yesterday
I was listening to a KMBC story yesterday where I heard the smartest man in America is located in Missouri and I'm reminded of the fact you don't have to have a high intellect to neccessarily be successful, monetarywise. I'm saying that creativity isn't always prevalent in high IQ people, in fact extremely creative high IQ one's can be rare or those so bright they really stand out, Leonardo Da Vinci was one of them.,
The thing about both, creativity and intelligence, is they're both unto each other exclusively. The best analogy I can come with off the top of my head is that high intelligence is a set of highly adaptable tools that allow you to do the job easily and well. Creativity is having a vague set of blueprints for something extraordinary you may be able to see but not know how to accomplish. This is where having an extremely intelligent person can come in handy.
