Wisdom evolves in the way all things that evolve, do. That is its wisdom. There is profound clarity in the statement: ‘Wisdom is choosing now what will make sense later.’ That later – when it comes – will provide in its demonstration evidence of wisdom’s consistent evolution. Wisdom trusts instinct. Instinct stems from experience. From time to time it bypasses instinct on its Wisdom Business of researching some learning and as such, focussing on the horizon, it trips over a growth node. That Wisdom has tripped once (or so) is not of much consequence in the big picture. In the big picture space has been made for tripping. Besides, trip-wires are made to be tripped over. It is how you fall that matters, and whether or not you get up.
It would seem that we do not all subscribe to the same Wisdom System. That is a good thing. I trust in what I trust, I believe what I do. That is because I have time-trialed my years and let them come to their own conclusions. It makes sense to work your learning to your advantage, given that true learning does not come easily. Being ‘at an advantage’ does not – in this context – mean that you will find yourself in a privileged position through virtue of your learning, it means that you will find yourself in the perfect position to do what it is in your life that needs doing. The degree of personal work you did with the experiences you chose to have determines your capacity to handle further learning. Handling capacity is what further learning is all about and a life without further learning is pointless.
Naturally, Time’s Wisdom flies. If it was always to walk, it might miss some of its own most important points. It is important to understand that although Wisdom is conveyed by every language on the planet it does not rely on verbal communication. That is why the link between Wisdom and instinct is a strong one. Some things you know. And when you know that you know them, then is when you learn the extent of your experiences’ evolution.

Say what you mean – Blog No. 26
Take control of what you tell people. Moderate your own comments before you make them. People do not need to know your every negative thought, know that. There are too many people talking noisily about nothing in this world. There are too many people following roads that go nowhere, giving a running commentary on their travelling experience. The true journey only begins when your feet find the right road. That is when you touch base with something sacred and your commentary becomes relevant. You will hear yourself clearly when your say-so is from your heart. Others will hear you clearly, too. Understand that until the moment – the psychological moment – that your commentary becomes relevant to you, you are confined to the corners of your life. Speaking from your own periphery is pointless. Speak directly to – and from – your core. Realise that sometimes you may surprise yourself with the things you say. Get used to being forthright, but practice not speaking your every thought. You are asking someone else to listen when you open your mouth. That is the way of humans. Make sure when you ask someone to listen to you, you have something to contribute to their day. That is the first thing. Out of respect, do not waste another’s time by whining in their ears. That makes two of you tired and contributes nothing to either of your lives. Speak to be understood. To do that – understand yourself. Observe yourself without judging your behaviours. That will bring you a new understanding and a new wisdom that you will find it relevant to share. Watch yourself change, evolve. Give yourself permission to grow. You will find that you do.
