Discovering the nuances of what drives and gives a development to enhance our intellectual capacity is essential to learn to differentiate between a high intellectual capacity and being really gifted.

Being able to identify ourselves to understand how different we are according to our individual abilities, is what will allow us to discover the scope of such potential, when we explore and discover such scope, then we can for example support in an adequate educational process, since we will know how to put in context the educational conditions for a student with a great potential that can be exploited to the maximum as long as we know in which branch is that he/she is really potential.

It is essential to have clarity about the characteristics and implications that accompany people with high capacities and giftedness to be able to give them an adequate educational accompaniment. Because both concepts refer to intellectual abilities and are related to other terms such as IQ, they are often misunderstood.

It is essential to understand the impact that the characteristics and their consequences have on people who demonstrate very high capacities that surround the borders of giftedness, the educational accompaniment implies exploiting all these abilities in the most suitable educational environment, that is to say to adapt and take advantage of these abilities in an environment according to these abilities, but the choice of these educational environments needs to be able to differentiate between a high capacity and giftedness.

It is not only in the educational environment where it is important to be able to differentiate between high abilities and giftedness, but also as labor managers, we must know how to exploit to the maximum the abilities of our workers, and for this it is important to differentiate between those who have high abilities and others who are gifted.

The difference that exists between high capacities and giftedness is that the scope of giftedness gives for much more exploitation and scope than that of abilities with high capacities, however its early identification allows us to see that there are more similarities than differences, since the two forms expressed in the people who possess them have the same needs to be addressed to get the most out of the benefits, so it is necessary to personalize their use and thus obtain the full potential that can be obtained.
