“The main functions of intelligence are: to invent solutions where there are none, to create orders where it is chaos, to simplify where it is complexity, to establish connectedness where things are otherwise disconnected”
— Jean Piaget
Simplified Meaning:
Intelligence helps us solve problems, organize our lives, simplify complicated things, and connect different ideas or people. Imagine you are trying to put together a big puzzle. Intelligence is like figuring out that a missing piece under the table fits perfectly. It is also like when you tidy up a messy room, decide what each corner will be used for, and make it a relaxing place. Intelligence allows you to take a confusing instruction manual and break it down into easy steps. If you are at a party where no one knows each other, being intelligent can help you start conversations and find common interests among the group. This ability to turn confusion into clarity and disconnection into unity can make life much smoother and more enjoyable.
