Are you teachable..


Wisdom isn't merely knowledge/understanding and applying it. Having an answer or opinion for everything.
True wisdom acknowledges it doesn't always know and is openly teachable. It can say "I don't know".

My criteria would begin with the qualifications of the "teacher." Following that.....I like to keep the words of King Solomon close. After all he'd surveyed including vast wealth and possessions, he looked at it all and called it a...."chasing after the wind."

Today, success seems to be measured in terms of wealth, possessions, notoriety, and career. I'm lucid enough to understand the idea behind having enough to live on, but I refuse to subscribe to anyone who doesn't possess the intelligence of a Solomon.
Seek wisdom first.
