@NativePortlander1970 And yet, there are times when people with enormous ambitions fail to achieve them or face problems. Why?

Mental blocks. Using the example of Raskolnikov and his internal conflict: if he hadn't killed the old woman, hallucinations wouldn't have arisen in his mind (and they were a torment because in the hallucinations, the police were tormenting the landlady, and these visions wouldn't have occurred otherwise). Blocks can also arise from mental limitations.Laziness, apathy. All psychological factors that are already well-known to us. Why does a person love themselves but doesn't reach their goal? Let's say we live in a world of magic. Antonia wishes to become a fairy. She's a human. She believes that anyone can become a fairy and thinks she is capable of becoming one. But alas, she is not a mermaid, just a human. Mermaids are powerful, majestic. Humans are insignificant. Moreover, the color blue brings bad luck. And they live on blue land. So do the mermaids. Other mermaids live on red land. Therefore, the most successful mermaids will be the ones living on red land, not blue. A human has no chance because they can't make their way into the red land. This is a primitive example. But such things, which we may not fully realize or only partially understand, influence us. You can believe in yourself, but still fail due to traps in the mind (contradictions within oneself or internal conflicts).The best way is to constantly work and improve. Sooner or later, anyone can become a genius, and it doesn't matter if you're lagging behind others in development. You can catch up with and surpass them, just like Forrest Gump.

Yes, at the end of the movie, Forrest Gump is not mentally challenged because he realized and understood things that other people might not grasp:

Saving a comrade's life. During the war, he saved his comrade's life. I don't remember if the comrade died. This is from a moral perspective.

He assembled a gun for the war faster than anyone else, without having any instructions. This is impossible because anyone with average intelligence will always outperform someone who is mentally challenged. Always.

The meaning of a person's life: whether we have willpower. He independently analyzed and provided an answer.

It's hard to notice, but it seems he... understood that the son is Forrest. A syllogism.

You might argue that he's mentally challenged because he can't navigate in space, but in university, many students still don't understand how a coffee machine works, how to turn it on. You see? They stand there and don't fully understand it. No, this isn't a sign of low intelligence, just like Forrest Gump asking for help with spatial orientation.

People didn't believe in him. Average minds said he wouldn't achieve anything. Nothing. But they were wrong. Isn't that a mistake of reason?

I believe that the speed of thought is just a skill (mechanism + memory). It's about doing the same things but constantly increasing the speed. Intelligence is about skills.

See?

I agree. My six kids all under the age of 14 should be able to outvote the childless couple across the street. The kids have no idea who to vote for so I can tell them. They are good kids they know that I buy their food.

@hippyjoe1955 maybe your child understand politique better than some adult. But you just think your child Can t understand...
You 1. Don t know inner World your children ( because introverti . He think " my mother believe I am inferior in intelligence than her".
2. You know but just disagree with his. It IS subjective opinion.

I think this very question proves the point
LegendarySpark · 22-25, F
@Picklebobble2 I propose just with argumentation.
For gouvernement is to need a
Understand every human ( psychology)
And analyse ( create strategy).
It is not experience for age because it IS possible for child to become equal adulte, sometimes to depass adulte ( in drawing, chess, mathematic, maturity for example) only if child work a lot. But IS possible to become " experimental" in 10 years old ( in général it IS After 18 years old). Exemple A War. ( it IS horrible but child in Russia achieve a diplôme for save your patrit). Or in Japan. More child can walk in the streat and give a tranways ( space orientation).
( I am not child. I am 21 years old student).

@LegendarySpark I understand what you're saying (those with the intelligence should be able to vote if they understand the issue)
But unfortunately I think political parties would exploit this for their own gain and may even create a parents Vs children culture within the family home that could lead to problems in relationships not yet understood or known
LegendarySpark · 22-25, F
@Picklebobble2 it IS possible if child or adult know what this politic are manipulator?( If you understand that it IS manipulation you Can don t bee manipulate). ( but IS possible if you have psychology similar that Anakyn Skywalker, yes. ).
For me, I am for Respect, love, and defenitivily abbolished Death punition.
