Second, the survival crisis forced them to change adversity and improve their intelligence with their brains for a long time. Lynn, a British psychology professor, believes that adversity can sharpen people's wisdom and stimulate their creativity. In the long history of more than 2,000 years, whether before the Ten Commandments of Moses or after the national subjugation, what the Jewish nation lacked most was being discriminated against, struggling and trying to survive in other countries. As floating population, they don't have any material resources, so the industries they can engage in are often industries that require higher intelligence. As the saying goes, "How difficult it is to prosper the country." Long-term painstaking efforts have cultivated their ability to be diligent in thinking, dare to be the first, be diligent in planning and cooperate in groups, thus evolving into a nation with high IQ.
Third, we attach great importance to education and have advanced educational methods. In a Jewish family, when the child reaches the age of seven or eight, the mother will definitely ask the child such a question: "When you are attacked by a pagan and have to run for your life, what will you run away with?" It is wrong to answer "money" or "gem" to this question. This is because both money and precious stones will be completely lost once they are taken away. The correct answer is "education". Unlike property, as long as people are alive, educational achievements can't be taken away by others, and there will be more opportunities waiting for you than others to help you rise again. One of the keys to Jewish success is to attach importance to education. As a minority Jew, since the motherland was destroyed in 70 AD, until the founding of Israel in 1948, there was no land of its own for a long time. They are scattered all over the world and live with local people. When you go to the ground, you lose your roots and you are in danger. The only reason for the existence and development of this nation is its better viability, which is absolutely inseparable from education. Therefore, despite countless generations, they still strictly teach Jewish teachings to future generations. Develop intelligence and knowledge through education, and then create your own living space. Because they invested in education earlier and harder than other ethnic groups, they have a better education mechanism. This undoubtedly provides a good soil for developing intelligence. They are generally keen on family education and early childhood intelligence development. I think this is one of the important reasons why they are smart.
Fourth, Jews' study of Talmud is enlightening to EQ, IQ, financial quotient and health quotient. Talmud is a masterpiece that summarizes the interpretation and research of the Bible (referring to the Old Testament). In Hebrew, Talmud means "great research". This book has been supplemented by Jewish wise men for more than 2000 years, and its content is profound. There is a saying in China that Jews have been wandering around the world for more than 2,000 years, and they can be said to be the most knowledgeable and knowledgeable people. The wise men in the nation have summed up wave after wave of experience, and their opinions must be unusual. One of the secrets of Jewish high IQ is hidden in the Talmud: there is such a Jewish proverb: "I would rather sell everything than marry my daughter to a scholar;" In order to marry a scholar's daughter, it doesn't matter if you lose everything. "From this point, we can see that the Talmud Sutra has a profound influence on their intelligence.
Fifth. They accepted the psychological implication of the Bible: Israel is the country chosen by God, and God will guide all mankind with the help of Israel. They have a strong self-confidence in their hearts. They have the ultimate concern that others may not have. Therefore, although this nation has been drifting for a long time without roots, it always thinks that "we are the best." Our roots are in God, and even death is not enough for us to change our true colors. The role of psychological suggestion should not be underestimated. There is a story: an educator visited a primary school, and the teacher asked him, look at the students in the classroom. Who will become a national talent in the future? Educators randomly pointed out two children, and later these two children really became talents. So the teacher asked the experts how they could tell. Experts are also surprised. He said, I'm just saying. This is the great function of psychological suggestion. Examples of this kind of psychological suggestion are not uncommon in other educational experiments. The psychological suggestion of Jews is a group that encourages and helps each other. Therefore, once firmly believed, it will obviously release the powerful power of the whole nation. Confident people are more conducive to developing many of their abilities, including IQ, than unconfident people.
Sixth, pay attention to diet. Among the influences of acquired environment on human intelligence, the influence of diet is significant. Jews' eating habits come from their religion. They have a strict tradition of clean food. The food is provided and examined by the priest, and will never be eaten indiscriminately. They think that what people eat will be affected, which is confirmed in the latest Dietetic Science. Therefore, they are generally not fat, and their diet structure is reasonable, excluding eating habits harmful to intelligence, so their brains can be well developed.
