In terms of being smart, some are more Consciousness than others.
In terms of intelligence, fear normally drives it.
Survival, objective and subjective drives in life.
Our Apotheosis, Gods master plan?
It’s our eyes he's seeing through,
That only he understands.
No reconcile or time for hesitating.
Hurt is ready, pain is waiting
Primed to do it's educating.

Some of it is genetics, some is environmental. Still more, the most important part, is determination. I think anyone can succeed in intelligence if they are determined. It doesn't come for free though. You have to work at it. Reading is essential. Read everything you can. It has a cumulative effect.

Intelligence is measured by your comprehension level(your ability to learn). When you find information that is too complex for you to understand then you have reached you comprehension limit. The higher the comprehension level, the more intelligent the person is.

I don't think school grades or wittiness makes someone smart. I think people who are smart are good people who don't brag on themselves or make fun of others to make themselves feel better, and aspire to learn new things and are just fun to be around. I don't think anybody who doesn't have those qualities are smart.

I don't think there's just one type of smart. You can be smart with maths, or with making friends, or with arranging flowers, you know?
