Have you ever heard about the theory of multiple intelligences? It was developed in 1983 by Dr. Howard Gardner, professor of education at Harvard University. It suggests that the traditional notion of intelligence, based on I.Q. testing ( I.Q. stands for intelligence quotient), is far too limited. 

Instead, Dr. Gardner proposes eight different intelligences to account for a broader range of human potential in children and adults. These intelligences are:logical-mathematical intelligence, verbal intelligence, musical intellgence, visual intellgence, body intellgence and intepersonal intellgence.
