Intrapersonal intelligence, an intelligence stemming from Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences, states that people with high intrapersonal intelligence have a higher ability to self-reflect and a higher ability at being aware of their own feelings and emotions. Also, people with high intrapersonal intelligence can analyze their own feelings, desires, dreams, relationships with others, and their own strengths and weaknesses easily. People with a high intrapersonal intelligence prefer and learn better by working alone. Also, because of their high self-awareness, intrapersonal intelligent people know what their need in most settings. Finally, intrapersonal learners are usually very highly motivated due to a practically innate understanding of what they need.
