Welcome to Day 1904 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom

Adverse Criticism – Daily Wisdom

Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1904 of our trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote and some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase wisdom and create a living legacy. Proverbs 16:16 says, "How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver!" If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget. Today’s quote is from Wisdom-Trek, and it is, “Adverse criticism from a wise man does more good than the enthusiastic praise of a fool.”

Adverse Criticism

If we surround ourselves with people who only praise us regardless of our performance, we will never have the capacity to grow and improve. On the other hand, if we freely associate with people who will be honest and forthright with us because they are concerned for our well-being, we will become much better. The key is to surround yourself with wise people as much as possible. It is of no benefit to have foolish people around us, even if they try to make us feel good, if they don’t have your best interest long-term at heart. Proverbs 27:6 Wounds from a sincere friend are better than many kisses from an enemy. As you ponder this nugget of wisdom for yourself, please encourage your friends and family to join us and come along tomorrow for another day of our Wisdom-Trek, Creating a Legacy.
