Intelligence VS Intellect

This is something I wrote back in the day.

To start by introducing myself is a very basic structure of setting up a story that will be about me. And to be honest, no matter how complex and interesting I'd like to sound, I'm actually very plain and boring. To get a true understanding of myself, one would have to observe and study me. Yet how could this truly be a conclusion of who I am? From what I can find from my own experience is that most of what man thinks is never truly displayed to the world around him, but this is based on my own life and feelings. For example, at this very moment, my mind is flooded with ideas of what should go on in this paper, yet only one of these thoughts can be pressed and displayed at a time. In fact, one thought I had was to not give an example, and instead continue to generalize my opinions. This is a contradiction in itself. I previously stated that although I have many ideas only one can be written on a topic; although my two statements were not simultaneous, they were different thoughts that were both written. This makes expression difficult because even though I can logically only choose one path of thinking, the mind flutters into multiple paths, that cannot all be true, shown, or even remembered. Man's intellect is how he thinks about ideas, man's intelligence is how he processes them. A man with a high intellect may be able to decipher things in the world, and understand what is going on around him, where an intelligent person is able to output through their understandings. So to put it simply, an intellectual is a thinker. They are someone who uses their mind to guide them and comprehend, to an extent, the life around him, where an intelligent person is one who one who is able to get something out of his thoughts and find fulfillment. This may differ from society's perception of the two terms, but perception is unique to each person. I find the intelligent man to be smart, someone who learns and gains. They problem solve. A smart man always knows how to benefit, whether he wants money, drugs, cars fame, love peace, war, knowledge, or happiness. A smart man doesn't always achieve his goal, but he's always working towards it. However, this talk of intellect and intelligence brings me back to the topic of thinking. See, the intellectual has knowledge. Observed knowledge. He can think for himself, and go into deeper aspects of every subject. An intelligent man always has an answer, even when wrong or indifferent. A person has two selves. An inner self and an outer. The outer self is what is shown and how a person acts toward the rest of society. The inner self, can only be known to the person. This is how and what the person thinks. Many ideas go through a person's head and this can only be shown to the inner self. Where the outer self will show the idea that is chosen to be the best decision by the person in accordance to how they think, and how they judge this answer is recognized by the environment. This is why, our actions are so highly regarded by those around us, because even what we may tell them we are thinking, may not actually be what we are thinking. So if you wanted to observe me, your report can only be judged by what you believe to represent me through my actions, and then use my actions to best determine my thinking process. When my actions may not determine my true thoughts nor feelings.
