I'm not sure I believe in varying levels of innate intelligence at all. And if it does exist, it is probably so removed from our standard measures of intelligence so as to make it inconsequential. What I do believe is that what we perceive to be different levels of intelligence among people is actually learned ways of thinking and approaching problems. Some people are lucky enough to be exposed to habits and ways of thinking early on in their life that provide a compounding return for the rest of it.
