dedication

self esteem

Are you illiterate

work ethic

intelligence is THE most crucial aspect to our quality of life

what separates humans from other animals?

Did I say there was only one variable

No

why are we so dominant compared to every other animal on this planet?

I saidit is the #1 variable

it's our intelligence

it's not the most important variable

Yes it is

your dedication and practicality is

This has been proven

Wrong

for quality of life, it is the most important

Ocean studies refute that idea

we're not talking about quality of life

we're talking about success

why do people want to come to the US?

IQ is more impactful than work ethic

for a higher quality of life

for more success

and why is the US so prosperous?

because a bunch of highly intelligent people built it

If work ethic is so important

Why can a subsaharan African attempt and fail to put an Ikea chair together for 5 hours

every modern thing we take for granted is a result of extremely intelligent people who worked hard to build it

And I can do it in 3 minutes

the roof over your head

the heating and air conditioning that allows you to be comfortable underneath it

the food that stays cold and fresh in your refrigerator

Furthermore high iq people have higher deferral of gratification

Which is functional work ethic

the computer and internet you're using right now to communicate

the freedom of information you now have at your fingertips

all of these things make your quality of life soooo much higher than it would be otherwise

and it's all a result of intelligence

Africans work fairly hard but they have meagre intelligence and deferral of gratification

By 1850 they had not even invented the wheel
