Wisdom and ignorance

Wisdom and ignorance

Wise is he who brings the light of knowledge to day to day, to practice, and with humility. Maturity and experience can help you, but I think that attaining wisdom is a mystery. Sages say that the most important thing is to learn to listen and pay attention. Have focus. I often say that a person with focus is worth more than an inattentive team. Who has focus goes there and does. The way may be there, in you looking at one thing, thinking: what do I get out of it? And then go there and do it. I also think that wisdom is in a humble execution, more than in a specific intelligence.

Ignorance is more than the opposite of wisdom, and it is worse, it is bad, it is very harmful and contrary to any possibility of growth, progress, improvement of life. Ignorance is to go far from understanding. I am not speaking of the ignorance with which all are born, but of that which persists through laziness or lack of initiative. The ignorant does not accept growth, does not bother to develop skills and knowledge.

If the path to wisdom is difficult and almost unknown, perhaps the first step is to fight against your own ignorance. Today, the world full of information and possibilities does not allow anyone who wants to learn nothing. Ignorant is who does not want to know.
