How To Get Wiser

I got this idea from Joyce Meyer and basically she said that if you want to get wisdom, you should read a chapter from the book of Proverbs from the Holy Bible, everyday. Since there are 31 Chapters, this lays out a perfect schedule to use as one of your wisdom tools. You can keep track if you miss a day or so because you will start with chapter 1 on the 1st day of the month, chapter 2 on the second day of the month and so on with corresponding chapters and with corresponding days.

They say that you become what you read about in about 5 years. Hmmm, so if you read the entire book of Proverbs every month for 5 years, you will have read it 60 times. Reading something 60 times for 5 years straight will surely become part of you. Imagine reading this book of wisdom for 20 years.

Try it out and you will realize that the wise sayings from this book will start to come out when you are speaking in everyday life. You will start to see everyday events for what they really are, you will start to understand events clearer. You will start to have insight into things that are obviously flawed or smart and wise actions.
