Until recent times, human intelligence has been measured by an IQ test.
Then, emotional intelligence (EI) came into play. Now we see how much more intelligence we have when we deal with our emotions and think through things with the consideration of our emotions and how we are affecting others.
There is another way to understand and boost your intelligence as well – your spiritual intelligence.
Maybe you’re smarter than you think. Rate yourself on these top 4 ways of expressing your Spiritual Intelligence:
- Follow your moral compass
- Follow your highest sense of what’s fair and honest in any situation even if it costs you something you think is important.
- Choose to be kind and loving
- Choose what is good for all, not just for yourself
- Know your life purpose. This carries huge weight as one of your greatest contributions
