i would theorize that someone must have a great awareness of themselves before they are able to perceptive about another. we must be aware of our own strengths and weaknesses, our fears and desires, our motivations and standards, etc, in order to view someone else with greater clarity. and the more complex and the more experienced a person with many aspects of the life, the deeper they grow, both in character, vision, and intellect. i enjoy multi-dimensional, balanced people, they are rare to encounter and a joy to find. of course, everything is entirely subjective and all our interactions and assessments are based on a number of randomized interpretations and selective perception. damn. what do you guys think? :D

Self awareness is the foundation of all intelligence.

LIES!

There are lots of different intelligences that don't have much to do with self-awareness like Naturalistic, Kinesthetic, Musical, etc.

Haaaa!!! If it is complete BS, then it will surely jive with my inner core, and it will work out splendidly! You're worse of a bullshitter than me, heaven help you! Funny as hell you are! :D

I was completely honest about what I thought, but I was just warning you I might not actually know dick.

I don't even try to bullshit. I believe you though, because I'm pretty certain my brother is an ESTP, and he has a way of making anyone believe anything. It works because even he believes himself :D

These require just as much self-awareness as any of them. This is where people wrongly generalize, because a simple concept doesn't match with the complex reality.
