Wisdom is often described as a virtue, a valuable resource, or a desirable goal—in short, a good thing. But what is it, really? ArashEmamzadeh explains.
A person who has high levels of the three characteristics described above is more likely to maintain an open mind, remain calm, show care and compassion, and behave ethically . In comparison, the average person facing a challenging situation is more prone to get upset, look at a problem from one angle only, and behave selfishly.
People’s motivational and emotional states impact how much they make use of their cognitive capacities :Having knowledge about life and oneself . This knowledge is not always conscious but may involve practicalOne, being aware and able to consider different views, interests, values, and goals in an open-minded way. Two, being humble. This humility comes from the awareness of the limits of what we can know about life and our power to control or predict it.
As a result, these individuals are “able to access and utilize their cognitive wisdom resources—broad and deep knowledge about life and themselves, metacognitive awareness of the limitations of knowledge and the relativity of perspectives, and self-reflection to reason and behave wisely in challenging situations.”
