will a low iq keep me from achieving my goals?

I think it is good to be aware of our "liabilities" but also very important not to let them stop us. It is also good to know our assets and talents and use them to
their fullest.
For example, one of your "liability" is that you tested low on the IQ test but you probably have some great assets. Maybe you are very determined or creative or you might have a knack to pick up on new trends etc..

I think that as long as you have some clear achievable goals, know your strengths and weaknesses and strategize accordingly you can accomplish what you want to do if you work hard. This pretty much applies to all of us btw.

IQ tests also need to be taken with a grain of salt. I have an acquaintance whose IQ qualifies him for MENSA and who at 50 something has achieved very little materially in life: no career, does not own a home, no savings, no car, no family etc... This is a brilliant man but he never put his intellect to good use. I also know quite a few people of mediocre intelligence who have done well and live a comfortable and content life.

Don't let a number hold you back.

I've always felt that some aspects of my intelligence make me great at things like marketing but can be debilitating in other areas of life.
I'm the most disorganized person I've ever encountered and I have an extremely short attention span. I can't do anything for more than 5 minutes other than things that I am really interested in. I have trouble sitting in traffic or even waiting at the doctor's office. However, if I am interested I tend to be obsessive and will neglect taking care of myself, sometimes forgetting to eat for days.
I've met people who are way more intelligent than me and also have trouble coming across as normal human beings, especially in social settings.
 
Why would anyone assume someone got a low IQ? Because of a bullshit test? Because some strangers said so?

Your life, your decisions, your actions. Literally, no one gives a shit. No one is holding you back from learning something. All the informations are available for free on the internet. This is not the 17th century where only chosen people were allowed to learn something.
 
It's a nice thing to say to say that IQ plays no part in life - that isn't true, it does.

However it's also complete bullshit to say that having a higher IQ guarantees anything will happen or having a lower IQ guarantees that anything won't happen.

People that are mentally retarded (medically) can go on to do big things - just look at Paris Hilton. Just look at mumble rappers.

People that are highly intelligent may become nobel peace prize winning scientists, or they may become crackheads that live in the Tenderloin or Kensington and suck off old men as a way of supporting their habit.

IQ really is a thing though - it's silly to say IQ tests mean nothing. But it's 10 times sillier to say they mean everything.

I agree- the fact that OP can surf the internet and land at BHW already shows something

IQ will only be a defining factor when the person is retarded (Below an IQ of 80)

Other than that- it's still going to be tougher for some, relatively, but success can be achieved
 
Low IQ ppl doesn't have any hesitation to ask question and no fear about failure which drives them to achieve goals faster...
 
Well i have read and seen personally that low EQ people tend to fail. Low IQ people can work hard and achieve what they want to. But the low EQ people have more problems.
 
Already weekend threads - can't be that early - wait a bit to post these crazy things please. I will miss out on it.

but in all seriousness.
It really depends on your goals.
Have having a xxx disability, does not mean you cannot succeed in your goals.
It will be difficult but some things are always in your reach.
 
Find something you’re good at
 
According to googles latest update- your first sentence is not good for SEO.
 
If you below 80 IQ I would say it's impossible to make it in IM field on your own. For instance people below 70 IQ piss in their own water supply, they can't understand simple cause of a problem.
I would also suggest to look at WORLD MAP by IQ interesting stuff.
