Friday! Proverbs! There is a way which seems right to a man and appears straight before him, But its end is the way of death. Proverbs14:12 AMP Thats an attractive offer /option /person... This proverb is all about thinking. Thinking beyond the immediate, what Edward de Bono calls CAF Consider All Factors. Take a step back and CAF because the path may not be good for you - we have a bias in our decision making that stops us thinking too hard when what's in front of us is attractive...we discount the risk, the downside, what could go wrong, how it might affect other people...what we believe is right & wrong... #discernment #think #choosewisely #proverbs #wisdom #somethingtochewon
Friday!! time for some wisdom... Proverbs 15:14 NIV The discerning heart seeks knowledge, but the mouth of a fool feeds on folly. The fool feeds on folly...it's like there is no effort involved in this, just tuck in to all the gossip, the silliness, time wasting stuff that floats around our world...junk food for the soul...it's easy to access and tasty...but as the writer here says...leads to us becoming fools. Am I getting too much of this? The discerning heart on the other hand seeks knowledge. Seeking requires effort, we need to be deliberate, it can take time...maybe I could do some more of this... #proverbs #wisdom #somethingtochewon #discerningheart
