“If you desire wisdom greater than your own, you can find it
inside you.” This is a great quote
by M. Scott Peck, MD that reminds us to turn inward instead of being quick to
turn to outside influences to see us through.
Too oft, folks figure that since a solution or wisdom
doesn’t just drop in their laps, that they must be incapable of figuring out a
situation on their own. Though
there are times when this is the
case, if a person is patient and willing to still their rapid-firing mind that
has them searching for answers elsewhere, they’ll find the wisdom they
seek. It costs them nothing and
will likely be a better-suited solution than if offered by outsiders. Why? Simple.
No one knows us better than ourselves. As such, we are better equipped to
solve our problems than others.
Not always…but more often than some would tend to think. Media, society, etc, saturates us with
quick-fix options rather than encouraging the quieting of one’s mind in order that
they themselves might find what
they’re seeking.
The next time you find yourself searching for answers,
remember, “If you desire wisdom greater than your own, you can find it inside
you.”
