-6 Actions-Decision-Choices triggered by your wisdom and sensibleness

Yes it is possible to become wise, sensible and matured by age at least theoretically – BUT - it is more of a concept than how we acquire it in real-life.

Our wisdom, sensibleness and emotional-maturity comes from our life's significant disruptive emotional events, failures, mistakes, blunders – as also from overcoming-odds, successes and triumphs..

But there is a caveat – by merely experiencing life-changing and course-altering events won't automatically make you wise and emotionally mature.

The real wisdom, maturity, presence of mind and common-sense-intelligence can only be acquired by consciously choosing to reflect deeply and objectively the entire chain of event – to understand multiple factors and causes that lead to and succeeded the event.

You can use your acquired wisdom ONLY when you are relatively calmer and are able to dissociate yourself emotionally from any disruptive event happening with you.

6 Actions-Decision-Choices triggered through your wisdom and sensibleness – these could mean you taking following acts

1.Waiting till you have got a reasonable control over your thought process and emotional turmoil AND then finding ways to bounce-back
2.Walking away from the situation/person OR
3.Completely ignoring the situation through the art of conscious dissociation OR
4.Laughing at the absurdity of the situation and the aftermath consequences of these disruptions OR
5.Tackling serious situation with wit and humor OR
6.Using this experience to help others who are struggling by being kind and supportive – to overcome your own sadness, hurt, loss etc.

Sensitive person are generally empathic, understanding and emotional people – what others do or say or what is happening to others - may impact them personally in powerful manner.

Sensible persons – on the other hand – have the personality, disposition and emotional-attitude of - looking objectively at the practical aspects of any given situation and getting back to the brass-tacks of exploring ways of how to solve the situation in more effective ways.

Sensible persons tend to create a balance between the various demands of other stakeholders while remaining objective, impartial and unbiased.

All of us without any exceptions – including the wisest of people – make mistakes, take wrong decisions, choose bad priorities, take incorrect actions and make big judgmental errors.

To become a wise and sensible person – you have to get into practice of – analyzing, reflecting and introspecting about what triggered that event – ONLY when you are in complete self-control and are emotionally calm.

And after understanding the situation reasonably well – you have to ask yourself - what you could have done differently PLUS how will you apply these insights in the future events. And also how you can make the best use of the options, possibilities and solutions available to you right now.

Sensibility is fragile and inconsistent– meaning - you could be wise in certain aspects and could come out as a perfect jackass in different situation and with different people.

Wisdom and sensibility neither can be compared so as to find who is more wise and sensible and smart and real-intelligent – NOR you can acquire it exactly in the same way - the wise persons you hold in high esteem acquired theirs.

One of most elementary element of wisdom and sensibility is – understanding the situation from widely different - angles and perspectives, exploring the options available, identifying practical-within-Your area-of-control solutions.

Wise and sensible people work on developing and maintaining - various safety nets – be it financial, social, relationship, profession and for other important factors.

Wisdom may not lead you to – major breakthroughs BUT you would be able to deal with most of the events that happens to you, effectively through using your wisdom and sensibleness by regularly sharpening this ability by using in real life situations.

Wisdom can also help you realize and understand that – the actions you took at any particular event was the best – that you saw at that time and also can prevent you from drowning in self-pity or berating yourself.

No one in this world can change their past – Therefore the Wise people of this world – turn their focus on how to use the learnings from their experiences to make enhance the quality of their life.
