1. Intrapersonal Intelligence Howard Gardner Intelligence

2. Gardner’s Definition: 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.

3. An Intrapersonally intelligent person... … the access to one’s own feeling life—one’s range of affects or emotions: the capacity instantly to effect discriminations among these feelings, and, eventually, to label them, to enmesh them in symbolic codes, to draw upon them as a means of understanding and guiding one’s behavior.
