More on wisdom

From MinEmergent - thoughts on wisdom and a book to read? I'm thinking it takes courage to dive in and practice what is right and being self-aware enough to see when it works and when it doesn't......

Wisdom is not gained by knowing what is right. Wisdom is gained by practicing what is right and noticing what happens when that practice succeeds and when it fails. Wise people do not have to be certain what they believe before they act. They are free to act, trusting that the practice itself will teach them what they need to know.
