Your leading Primal power is Imagination, a power groundbreaking scientists like Albert Einstein, and creative athletes, like Serena Williams, have in spades.

Your limiting or least developed Primal power is Emotion. We’ll talk more about that below.

Your scores are relative to you. Scoring high on imagination means your ability to use imagination is currently stronger than your ability to use intuition, emotion, and commonsense, not that you have more (or less) imagination than anyone else.

Let’s look at these two Primal powers and how they inform your intelligence.

“Imagination is more important than knowledge.”

— Albert Einstein

Imagination

Your leading Primal power is imagination.

Imagination is your power to invent new plans.

Logic misunderstands imagination as ideation — or magic.

When your leading power is imagination, you embrace change and are open to the moment.

Emotion

Your limiting Primal power is emotion.

Unlike logic-based EQ, the Primal power of emotion isn’t a tool for knowing how others feel: it’s your ability to know your own emotions.

Emotion is your power of personal direction.

When your limiting power is emotion, you often doubt yourself--even when you're doing the right thing.

Many successful individuals have a clear leading power and a clear limiting power, with the other two Primal powers somewhere in the middle.

Generally, you grow fastest when you develop your limiting Primal Power. In your case, emotion.

When paired, imagination + emotion power resilience.

To strengthen your emotion and boost your psychological resilience, read chapters 3 & 6 of Primal Intelligence.
