It is an undeniable truth that wisdom comes with experience, but we often make the mistake of thinking age equates to wisdom, with the assumption that one must be of a certain age to be wise. But ageing does not necessarily mean someone is wise. Anyone can be wise – a younger person can possess more wisdom than an elderly person. An elderly person can expand their wisdom by going beyond their lived experience.
 
In this book, Njabulo addresses the issue of assuming that every old person is wise as he shares his experience with this assumption. He details how anyone can acquire knowledge and wisdom without solely relying on their personal lived experiences.
 
He shares insights and knowledge into what wisdom is. Exploring the psychological and philosophical approaches to understanding and defining wisdom. He deep dives into how one can gain wisdom, detailing the methods and tools available to expand their knowledge and intelligence. He considers this way of acquiring wisdom an art form in which anyone can excel at.
 
He further provides an in-depth exploration of the benefits that come with being wise. And the pitfalls of remaining unwise.
 
Gaining wisdom has never been simpler.
 
Those who remain unwise do so by choice.
