On IQ and How it Applies to Freelancers
By scheduling time to read up on new things, you increase your knowledge and help your ability grow.
Rich Kid, Smart Kid, for all the controversy it generates, at least gives a sensible illustration of IQ: intelligence relative to age. In other words, the more intelligent someone is, compared to the average intelligence of his age, the higher his IQ.
This also means to maintain your IQ, learning new things as you age is necessary. Someone who grows older, yet still knows the same things, is technically decreasing his IQ.
How does this apply to freelancers? The discipline and commitment EQ brings are crucial, but without a good IQ to complement it, a contract worker will have a harder time. You use IQ to come up with ideas, and EQ to execute them. Try to put aside some time everyday to learn new things, so that you’ll maintain—or even increase—your IQ as you pursue your freelance career.
