-Herbert Hoover.
Knowing can be memorized, wisdom is something that enables us to use knowledge correctly.
Wisdom resists group pressures, thinks for itself and is reconciled to use its own judgment. It doesn’t matter how much money you have or if you where handed a leadership role on a silver plate; everyone has to buy wisdom on a installment plan.
The person who thinks he knows everything has a lot to learn!
Wisdom is making the best use of knowledge. Develop the ability of discernment. The effective leader has an “insight” needed given for and given situation.
Insight is penetration into character or circumstances with understanding. The leader must develop the power of insight.
One of the tests of a leader is the ability to recognize a problem before it becomes an emergency.
The effective leader will develop a regular reading program. The more knowledge you obtain regarding your particular area if interest, the better you can apply wisdom as it is needed.
Gaining knowledge will give you the facts you need so that you will not freeze in making decisions.
Fear, doubt and worry will immobilize you from getting the job done. Reading and studying will help you overcome many problems and propel you to proceed.
