Having wisdom means you just ‘get it.’
Wise people see things for what they are and cut through the noise.
They are aligned with how things work at their core, and this is why people seek them out.
But how do you nurture your wisdom?..
1. Curiosity.
Without nurturing continual curiosity it’s impossible to develop a deep wisdom that sets you apart.
A lot of this emerges naturally. But it just as quickly gets crushed in the rush of the every day.
As such, we can view curiosity as a habit that must be maintained and fed daily. The more curious you are, the more curious you become.
This will not only deepen your wisdom — it will keep your mind out of your personal ruminations.
2. Realists.
More people than we think are ruled by fantasy.
The media plays a huge role in creating the sense that the world is a frightening and hostile place when it is not.
This drives people to escape, and fantasy is the apparent elixir to this illusory pain — even if it takes the form of yet more fake news.
