Read and study and practice one proverb a day. Complete the Proverbs every month (last day of the month often entails reading more than one Proverb). Do this every month for 2 years.

You can learn more about the world, people, history, science or anything else by studying it. If you want to specialize, spend more time in one subject area. If you want to be more well- rounded study in a more general way.
If you enjoy studying, this won't be difficult. It can actually be very exciting.
If you don't enjoy studying, then perhaps just schedule a special time, say an hour to study.
I know a man and a woman with incredibly high IQs. One is a postman and has no social skills who is and has always been unhappy. The other works earning minimum wage and also has pretty bad social skills. Having
a high IQ doesn't always mean success in any area of life. People have a lot of high expectations of kids with high IQs and that can be detrimental emotionally and socially.
Most of the people I know are just normal people. Some of them choose to go to school or be "life-long-learners." Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that you can take control of how intelligent you feel. It's up to you. Best of luck.

you can become intelligent if you try so don't lose hope.
i was an egg head my self in high school. but in my last year i pulled my socks up and hit the books. It was a LOT of hard work and studing but it was worth it. I am now studing in Australia's top university, the ANU (Austraian National University). All because i did assignments and passed tests. I'm top of my class because i work hard and i still find time for fun, like hanging out with friends.
If you work hard and you really have the will power you can be whatever you want.
But remeber, before you can be intelligent, you have to know how to be intelligent....so study hard. Work at you weak points and improve them, and make your stong points better.
good luck! ;)

...wiggles through with the best he's got. From a janitor to a doctor, everyone has a certain level of intelligence, but the main thing is to use it well under different circumstances.
The active-negative leaders and dictators like Hitler or Stalin had the brain power but they used it in the wrong direction, and cannot be categorized as being intelligent.

An intelligent what?
To become an intelligent PERSON, or at least to sound as if you are so, first you must learn the language with which you choose to express yourself! That means studying, reading, learning grammar and syntax and the rules of the language.
Good luck with that!

It's no secret!
Read alot and retain the information. That's how you become intelligent. When you retain it, use it within your life. For example, say you know nothing about typing and you need to because you boss said you need to learn. Start learning how to type. Then use it by chatting or writing emails to family....

Every child has all the wisdom needed to have an extraordinary life......
If you're talking about "knowledge".. then that is something different...
Knowledge lead to the original sin, the atomic bomb, germ warfare, etc... basically all evil comes from knowledge..
Many people view "intelligence" as the ability to acquire knowledge...
Those who are wise, view "intelligence" as the ability to recognize the danger and uselessness of knowledge

unfortunately the best way to become intelligent is choose a fine set of parents which you cannot. as well as a good upbringing both are out of your control. but as a grown up man you can choose to read lots of books stay away from trashy literature and compant.
