words of wisdom

There is no such subject in any school curricular would teach about this(correct me if i'm wrong), but most of us been living with it in our entire life.We've heard of these words of wisdom. There are lots of it (just name it!). One of my favourite is "if you wanna, you gonna"(-T..hahaha). It sound quite straight foward. Personally for me its mean u gotta go for whatever you want in your life. You wanna you better. No matter how hard you're going to but as long as you want to achieve them you gotta be determined. The most determined as you wanna and someday you might get it(hopefully, wish you goodluck!). My another long time favourite is "think before you act". You might heard it before eh? Short and sharp. Applicable to everything. Whatever you wanna do or say,you better have some thought first. Right or wrong? Do it or not? Think first. But don't take too long to think of what to say or others will thought that you're retarded.

And whats the great deal of these words of wisdom? Its true that most of them are sort of kinda good stuff @ positive @ nice ideas @ brilliant (whats the point of calling it words of WISDOM right?) But do we use it in our life? Are we really up to these wisdom? If we do why there is still people made mistakes? Why do there are still others who felt 'missing out of life'? Meaning, not all apply these wisdom in their life.

"life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you gonna get..."(-forest gump). Yes, its true. You never know whats gonna happen, but what are you gonna do with it? Living and just wondering? Or you look for the answer? One of my lecturer from university says "you know what you know, you don't know what you don't know, it is good to know what you know and it is good to know that you don't know rather than you don't know that you don't know(you might be in danger)". Sound complicated?(hehehe). Its not the words that we are looking here but the meaning of it and how we interpret and apply them in our life. Words of wisdom would just be words of boredom if we just listen and ignore them.

So what's your words of wisdom?
