Wise people know intelligence is not wisdom. The rub is that it usually takes a lot of life experience under your belt to reach that level of awareness. Be a lifelong learner and you'll likely achieve both. That doesn't mean being a graduate student for life, amassing piles of debt and peer-awarded accolades, because that's often just a refuge from life and delays wisdom for years. Or decades. In this age of cloud data and instant communications you can learn to do nearly anything while only investing your time, efforts, and persistence. Make yourself valuable if you want to remain free when times turn dark.
