From the personal experience : Intelligence and Intellect are contagious!!These two things just get rubbed on you!

Mind works in weird ways,it just absorbs everything as sponge absorbs water!

In case of sponge to get the water out you need to squeeze it and in case of the mind to get the "water" out you don't need to worry about it, it just comes out as and when required ( but again if you try to "squeeze" the mind "water" wont come out!)
