In order to continue, I must add that not only do others need to tell one if an action may result in a positive or negative outcome but the one enacting also needs to question himself or herself of what the potential consequences will be for his or her actions. For Sherlock Holmes, in The Hound of the Baskervilles, who continually questions Mortimer whether the curse is legitimate, this comes as second nature due to his wise use of his intelligence. He even questions if the curse is a “fairy tale” due to suspicion in which he has about the curse (Doyle 8). In this narrative, Holmes continually questions himself on what to do next while also questioning others on what had been going on in order to detect hidden information. For example, in chapter four, he continually asks questions so that he can find out more information about the curse and how to end it. While comparing this to Aylmer, one can say that Aylmer showed no sign of asking what might happen or even researching what might happen. Instead, Aylmer jumped to the conclusion that, no matter what, he would be in the right. Within my own life, while also presenting negative usage of my intelligence, I have used Sherlock Holmes’ style of intelligence usage. For example, in my accounting class last semester, I ran into several issues on my tests where I thought I was correct but I still worked out the problem and continually asked myself whether I was proceeding with the correct
