Episode 658: You Are Not What You Consume. You Are What You Absorb.

The more accurate version of "you are what you eat" is this: you are what you absorb. And the same is true of information. In this episode I explore the difference between being smart and being wise, a distinction my husband and I were wrestling with in a recent conversation that I have not been able to stop thinking about. Smart is about intake. Wisdom is what happens when information actually gets processed, integrated, and applied. When it moves from your head into your choices. Most of us have developed very sophisticated consumption habits and very underdeveloped digestion. We move too quickly from one piece of content to the next for anything to settle. What actually allows ideas to digest? Quiet, journaling, real conversation, and the willingness to stay with one thing long enough to find out where it actually lives in your life.
