Maturity, Intelligence, EQ, Wisdom

We often confuse between Maturity, intelligence, EQ and wisdom. I found this lovely article that describes the difference between maturity and intelligence.

Interesting how the difference between wisdom and intelligence hasn't come out in the links below. Wisdom, maturity and EQ have to do with F and the intuitive tendency to live and make good choices while intelligence is cerebral NT (as in MBTI). Intelligence is often confused with knowledge. Not at all, intelligence is the ability to process knowledge, go beyond it and see what exists behinds the knowledge.

Article on Emotional Immaturity: http://www.hwarmstrong.org/rice05.pdf - this article is interesting though almost everything including the kitchen sink is included under the subject and at times, contradictory stuff too. The last section on mastering irresponsibility is nice.

Maturity Definition:
The word Maturity is defined here. The 1st para in the link given is very interesting and seemed to agree completely with my idea of maturity. It is an F (as in MBTI) , not T trait.


Maturity correlates well with EQ. An important part of maturity is the use of "Key Words" relevant to the topic under discussion.
