Self-awareness has nothing to do with intelligence, self-awareness is the term used to describe the idea of life or existence. Even single-celled organisms are aware of themselves and what and how they interact with what is around them and why they do it (survival).
To think inwards and manifest reasoning from cause and effect is something all living things do, it is the depth to which it is done that dictates the order of the living thing, from high to low.
intelligence is not inward nor is it outward from the self, it is only recorded knowledge to be shared. Only with the introduction of emotion can we begin to grow outwards from that base of knowledge. To dream and create.
Some people are great at puzzles, some are not. We all have weaknesses and stregths and to say that a person who is good at a puzzle is more intelligent than one who isn't is pure bullshit. But through science we can see that there are people with minds of more depth or capable of more depth than what is considered average and in those cases it is people who are more in tune with their imagination and emotional aspects.
Socrates without an imagination is a man who records history. With his imagination and his emotional intelligence he is herald as a the world's greatest dreamer and philosopher who, from that recorded history he compiled, paints a vividly diverse future with ideals to take us in to that future, most of which have to do with the emotional animal we are.
