Is your social life increasing or limiting your Intelligence?

The quality of social upbringing one has had during all his childhood years as well as his teens, determines to a greater degree his/her intelligence as well as his/her ability to "learn and lead". Super Brain, a book written by Dr. Deepak Chopra along with Prof Rudolph Tanzi, gives us details of how our brain makes connections and how more & more neural connections directly or indirectly define the level of intelligence that one will reach. There is a point that one of its chapters make - The more variety of people we meet on a daily basis and the more we have healthy interactions with them regularly, the more neural pathways begin to take shape.
