The Top 10 Allies of Wisdom
Category: Success, Smart Choices, Wisdom (BD541)Originally Submitted on 6/28/2003.
1. The still, small voice within.
Remember, the ego speaks first and loudest and does not wish us well. It is the still, small voice within that guides with wisdom.
2. Patience.
The reward of patience is ... patience.
3. Non-action.
The ability to refrain from taking action can take lifetimes to develop. It is a rare quality.
4. Understanding that the fastest way is often the opposite way.
This principle is related to the metaphysical law of rhythm. "All things are always changing to their opposites."
5. Timing.
It's not what you say, or how you say it. Mostly what counts is WHEN you say it.
6. Applying an appropriate amount of force.
Don't kill a fly with a hammer.
7. The ability to stand alone.
Sine qua non.
8. Integrity.
Do you act the same when no one is looking?
9. Realizing that those you wish to impress will do what you do, not what you say.
10. Don't ask anyone to do something you are not willing to do yourself. And ... do it first!
