I want to let you in on a little secret, you don’t get wise by just living.
You might think that old age brings forth wisdom, it does not. Even experience doesn’t help some folks.
Wisdom requires a level of self-reflection and self-doubt that is far too uncomfortable for many people.
Many people would rather be right than to be wise.
Wisdom begins not in knowledge, but in knowing that you don’t know. The four most powerful words in the English language are, “I do not know.”
They say that the larger your pool of knowledge, the greater your shores of ignorance.
It’s true.
