Are you ready to answer the following questions?
How many times have you gone through difficult situations that had an easy solution but you did not figure it out in time, and things went wrong for you?
Have you ever thought: "If I had known the consequences of my decision, I would have decided differently"?
Do you have peace of mind knowing that your children are smart enough to take care of themselves when you won't be there for them?
Do you feel prepared to handle the hardships that are yet to come into your life?
Questions like these make us think about the better kind of life that we could be living now if we had acted wisely in the past...
They make us think of our kids, and all the problems that they will likely have to face later on in life, for which they had better be wise enough to handle or, suffer the consequences...
Life has good and bad moments for everyone, no matter what his or her live venue is.
People will always have to go through hard times in life, at some point and time, regardless of how wealthy they are.
That is why they need to face those hard times in a wise manner or they will suffer the consequences of all the bad decisions they will likely make.
At this point, you are probably asking yourself, "How can someone be ready for all situations in life?"
Also, "Which is the way to assure that you, or someone else, will take the best decision to face those situations?"
Great! It's good that you finally asked me!
It's good for both of us!
The unique answer to both questions is...
WISDOM!
There is no way to go back and re-create a situation that you had lived through in order to give you a second chance to make the wisest decision once the moment has passed.
The only time you have a chance to do things right is in the exact moment you are faced with the situation. You're given one opportunity to do what you have to do, no second or third chances.
All right then... what is your point? Please cut to the chase!
My point is this:
Everyone must do the best to acquire wisdom in life and to help others do the same.
But you're probably thinking, "wisdom is not something that you can buy or grab anywhere, so, do you have a solution to the problem you brought to my peaceful mind?"
I do! In fact, I have learned to benefit from the wisdom others have gained through their own life experiences, some people learn things the easy way with good results after their good decisions, while others do it the hard way, after making wrong decisions and suffering the consequences later. But hopefully all of them learn wisdom through the daily events they experience in life.
When people write about their lives they share their experiences with others who read them.
You become wiser the moment you apply other people wisdom to your life instead of trying to gain your own living experience and see what happens next.
You can do it! Read from people who have written about the events of their lives and what they learned from those events. You can profit from what other people have experienced by applying the morals of their stories to similar events in your own life.

I hope that this will be of help for you, as much as it has been for me!
