About This Quote

When we speak of wisdom we often refer to the ability to make good decisions. One who is wise can make good decisions, but it is more than that. It is having the ability to see things clearly, to understand how things work, and to make sound judgments when making important decisions. What is required of someone who possesses this wisdom is the ability not to be swayed by his emotions when making judgments.

Because emotions are difficult to control, they can cause us to make poor decisions in our lives. Our emotions are often triggered by our environment or by our experiences in life.
