It is dangerous to trust only intelligence

Intelligence is one of the most dangerous thing in some situations. We could consider this in various situations-

-A student who is studying for his exam cannot just rely on his/her intelligence, rather his hardwork usually matters. Intelligence can only help to enhance the hardwork.

-In fields like scientific, nuclear and space research, long established facts aid more, than on spur intelligence and hasty decisions

-In political field ministers need to take decisions based on experience and patience. Intelligence usually involves taking risks which might not be the right decisions. Their long term strategy is respected and not their intelligent decisions.

- This is especially true in medical field where doctors need to deal with critical situations. The most intelligent young doctor might not balance himself against an experienced doctor while dealing with a critical operation.

There are various other situations even in day to day life which always depict that intelligence cannot be the only means of achieving goals. Intelligence is not a sole basis of trust .
