"Turns out that intelligent people are generally healthier than their less-clever peers - studies have shown that brainiacs are, for instance, less likely to suffer from heart disease and Alzheimer's. Scientists have suggested that smart people may score less stressful jobs in safer places and that they may make better lifestyle choices, for instance by exercising more and eating better. In other words, maybe bright people actually listen to the Surgeon General."

In my life I have mostly surrounded myself with very intelligent people. What they all have in common generally is that they all think for themselves, don't necessarily believe what other people tell them without enough proof and make choices like in the above quote to live healthier lifestyles, take better care of themselves, ski, bike, fly, motorcycle, jog, swim, hike, sail, surf etc. In other words they find one or more outside recreations to both entertain them and keep them healthy. They try to have fun finding healthy foods, healthy mates and healthy friends. Whenever possible they move to the most beautiful areas find the most intelligent, compassionate and beautiful mates possible and make other intelligent friends who have similar interests.

What is most interesting to me about all this is that it doesn't really matter what class from poverty to wealth these people come up in. They all make really good decisions eventually even if at first they make bad choices. In other words really intelligent people not only learn from their own mistakes they learn from the mistakes of everyone they know or hear about.

This one factor sets apart really intelligent people from all others.
