Intrapersonal Intelligence

One of Howard Gardner's "multiple intelligences", Intrapersonal Intelligence is the ability to reflect, envision, and analyze. This is an internal process where a person might come up with a plan, reflect on the effectiveness of actions, brainstorm about how to do something or make something, or creative problem solve.

You can encourage your child's intrapersonal intelligence by helping him/her set goals, make plans, encourage day dreaming and creative thinking, or by helping him/her analyze the effectiveness of past actions or businesses.
