What Is Wisdom? By Margaret Plews-Ogan
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 6
We are not provided with wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can take for us, and effort which no one can spare us.- Marcel Proust

PROUST
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 16
one of the characteristics of wise persons is humility, so a wise person is unlikely to say that they are wise. Often, then, we identify these people by having other people nominate them, and it is interesting who gets on those lists. It can range from the Dalai Lama to Abraham Lincoln to Oprah Winfrey.

Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 22
Wisdom is different from intelligence. Intelligence seeks knowledge and seeks to eliminate ambiguity. Wisdom on the other hand, resists automatic thinking, seeks to understand ambiguity better, to grasp the deeper meaning of what is known and to understand the limits of knowledge. (Sternberg [1]).

INTELLIGENZA SAGGEZZA AMBIGUITÀ

Monika Ardelt is a modern wisdom researcher [2] who has put all of these into a 3 dimensional model of wisdom: cognitive, reflective and affective. [3] The cognitive dimension includes the desire to deeply know and understand things, including the limits of our knowing. The reflective dimension represents the capacity for self-reflection, and the capacity to see things from many perspectives. The affective dimension of wisdom is empathy and compassion.

TITOLO
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 39
When researcher Judith Glück and colleagues [4] asked subjects to describe a situation in which they acted wisely, compared to a peak experience, they found that the wisdom situations more often involved difficult or negative events, implying that wisdom perhaps develops through the experience of adversity.

Psychologists Tedeschi and Calhoun [6] have been studying this positive response to trauma for the past ten years, a phenomenon they call post-traumatic growth.
Nota - Posizione 46
POST TRAUMATIC GROWTH
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 49
Tedeschi and Calhoun suggest that trauma induces a disruption in our understanding of ourselves and the world (our schema) and that disruption forces us to re-work our understanding of ourselves and the world,

TITOLO
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 62
Here’s a summary of what they told us. Having a community, someone they could talk to, to tell their story, was important [8]. Cultivating gratitude and positive emotion, quiet reflection (whether meditation, mindfulness, prayer) was helpful.

COSA CONTA
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 67
All of the exemplars had at one point made a choice, a conscious, deliberate choice [9] to pursue something that was hard.

At some point they made a courageous choice to make a difference in their own lives.
Nota - Posizione 74
INTRAPRESA
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 75
Researcher John Meachum talks about a wisdom atmosphere [10] as being one in which doubts, uncertainties and questions can be openly expressed, and ambiguities and contradictions can be tolerated, so that individuals are not forced to adopt the defensive position of what he calls “too confident knowing”.

EDUCAZIONE EMOTIVA
Evidenzia (giallo) - Posizione 116
We are beginning to embrace the importance of compassion and wisdom in ways we have not seen before. I just returned from a conference at Virginia Tech (http:// www.cpe.vt.edu/ cpts/ [12]) that was all about bringing contemplative practice into our highly technologic world. It was a fascinating and energizing two days.
