The saying goes “With age comes wisdom.”
I’m not so sure. That is definitely true, but at the same time, we only learn from our experiences if we reflect on those experiences.
I say “in your stage wisdom can come.”
Experience doesn’t fix everything. You can have lots of experience and still be stupid. You don’t have to be turning gray to have some wisdom. You can start now.
Another saying, “wise beyond your years” can actually become an understatement in your life. But, in order for that to happen, you have to be dedicated to introspection and willing to be coached.
Sure we gain wisdom with age, but young age does not have to be a barrier.
Pride is the real barrier to wisdom for most of us. Pride can stop introspection in its tracks. Pride doesn’t allow for coaching because when you’re prideful you won’t let anyone speak into your life.
