You can be an intellectual rock star, able to recite ‘intelligent’ opinions on a variety of topics at will, but only experience can help you enjoy the fruits of true wisdom and understanding. These are cultivated by becoming aware of the connection between your thinking and your quality of life (i.e., how you feel). Habitually judging, critiquing, complaining or comparing creates an unpleasant emotional and psychological environment. When you’re discerning about what you put into your consciousness, you’re more much satisfied with the quality of life you get…
Out of it.
