Thinking your way to Wisdom
We are fortunate to have within us an inner intelligence that is deeper and more profound than any test couild measure-wisdom.
Your wisdom will tell you when to trust your thoughts and when to ignore them. It will tell you when you are thinking in a habitual, business-as-usual way and when you are thinking from a wise state of common sense.
Wisdom exists outside the confines of our individual thought system.
In other words, when we tap into our wisdom, we aren't thinking in a business-as-usual sense but from an entirely different standpoint, which propably explains why so few people acknowledge their own wisdom.
It is important that wisdom does not come from thought alone; it isn't linked soley to your ability to use your intelligence or memory.
You can't figure out what wisdom is trying to tell you. Instead you learn to trust a quiet inner voice that knows what you need to know. And what's more, when it doesn't know the answer, it knows that it doesn't know.
Wisdom is your sense of knowing, an intuitive feeling that you have experienced many times.
Wisdom exists in every aspect of your life. There are times when you simply know what is right for you, or when you can do something.
This is different from having to think or search for the answer.
Wisdom never comes from negativity nor can it exist when your mind is filled with negative thoughts.
Wisdom comes from quieting down, from dismissing your negative thoughts and listening to your inner knowing. Your inner wisdom will always speak to you if one simple condition is met:
Dismiss all negative thoughts surrounding the issue and quiet down.
Wise people through out history have been those who saw that while life is real, life's problems are "an illusion," they are thought created.
These people know that we manufacture and blow problems way out of proportions though our own ability to think.
Wisdom is indeed our inner sense of knowing, it is true mental health, a peaceful state of mind where answers to questions are as plantiful as the problems you see when you are expriencing wisdom.It's as if wisdom lies in the space betwen your thoughts, in those quiet moments when your "mental computer" is turned off.
THOUGHTS GROW WITH ATTENTION
We live the life that we imagine we life. Our past is a figment of our imagination, so is our future. The onlt moment that is real, is right now.As we recognize the powerful part that our thinking plays in creating our expiriences we begin to realize that life is not responsible four our happiness or unhappiness, our thoughts are.
This is a powerful insight because it suggests that you alone are capable of changing your own life. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said,
"The ancestor to every action is a thought"
