Dancing with Wisdom Podcast: Challenging Our Assumptions
Descrizione:
"What you don't know can't hurt you." Such is a famous English saying. The problem is it assumes much which is frankly wrong. Like asking a fish to describe the water it is swimming in, we have assumptions about ourselves and life that we take for granted as they are so much a part of the world around us. Those assumptions can hold us back from discovering the wisdom we are called to live by. By understanding and challenging them we can learn to begin to dance with wisdom in spite of all the complexity or confusion we commonly see around us. In this podcast conversation with my cohost Elliott Frisby we discuss three common myths when it comes to wisdom: Wisdom is the same as common sense. Wisdom comes with age and time If I live with wisdom then everything in my life will naturally go well and according to my plans and ideas. Such assumptions can seriously hold us back from living life with the purpose and fulfilment we were intended for.We need wisdom to appropriately handle and overcome the irritations and frustrations of life; the intractable problems we face in getting things done and most importantly to face the major devastations we will ultimately face in terms of death and other disasters. A sobering example of that is King Solomon who lived in the 10th century BC and was described as the richest and wisest man of his time. Yet in spite of this Solomon made some significant misjudgements and mistakes in his own life that lead to a tragic overall evaluation by his Creator. After you have listened to the podcast can you think of any other assumptions that may hold us back from dancing with wisdom? Life’s challenges can diminish, define or develop you. Which will it be? The choice is yours through wisdom. Make sure you choose the right one. The dancing with wisdom podcast was recorded at Monkeynut Audiobooks in the United Kingdom and presented by Dr Sunil and Elliott Frisby. monkeynutuk.com
