(On a personal note, I'm very pleased to note that I'm not "lacking" in any area. On this particular test, a score of 10% in some areas is not uncommon. To me, this means that I'm competent (while not necessarily excellent) in all areas of intelligence, my forte being music and self-knowledge.
Intrapersonal intelligence, (self smart) refers to having an understanding of yourself, of knowing who you are, what you can do, what you want to do, how you react to things, which things to avoid, and which things to gravitate toward. We are drawn to people who have a good understanding of themselves because those people tend not to screw up. They tend to know what they can do. They tend to know what they can’t do. And they tend to know where to go if they need help.
