There is a difference — often a big difference — between being smart and being wise.
💢 Smart people talk a lot. Wise people listen a lot.
💢 Smart people know what to say. Wise people know when and how to say it.
💢 Smart people know how to get what they want. Wise people know what’s worth wanting.
💢 Smart people are intelligent. Wise people are insightful.
💢 Smart people seek knowledge. Wise people seek understanding.
💢 It’s easier for a wise people to gain knowledge than for smart people to gain wisdom.
💢 Being smart doesn’t always humble you … wisdom does.
