WISDOM - The use of knowledge 

 When you live your life yourself, you take responsibility for your actions but when you are pushed, gingered, coerced to make a move, good or bad, you tend to care less about the outcome. However, there would come a time when you gotta accept that path that life has tossed you, knowing that nothing is vain, even though some are not expedient. Full understanding is a strong motivational force in directing one's commitment towards a project. With in-depth comprehension, one can then choose amongst other choices,to key into a venture. Even convictions can be influenced, the final choice of. Keying-in must be undertaken by the key persona. 
There is need for a working mindset, a living school of thought, a defined vision, an upheld principle and a chosen way of life. You can think and act different from the norm but reality checks should be made on the way, to ensure a measure of actualization I for one, think and guess you might agree with me, that the way of life should incorporate the socio-physical aspect of living. Being unique- standing out of the crowd should not necessarily mean one should distant one's self from other members on one's immediate community. The social interaction would privy one to resourceful informations, trends and vogue. 
The constant phenomenon, would create room for flexibility in your plan; accommodating new development in all facets of life, including your belief system. 
Whatever school of thought one chooses, proactiveness is key.
 Do you have a plan, make it plain. Abstract, general, vague goals ain't truly motivating. It kinda has to be personal. Being. Specific somehow makes it personal. At least you know without doubts, that you are chasing this point or the other for now-The Power of Focus. Give time, all the time necessary, to setting and achieving your specific goals. Bind them round your neck that you may not derail.
 Do NOT be deceived be uncertainties. Do not gamble except its an acceptable loss; do not even play to lose in the game of life. Yes, you can always win; if you come to every disparaging meeting with the mindset of negotiation. Negotiate to your advantage. 
I also think it is not every word of the Bible that should be taken as one spiritual bourgeois. Some are literally written with literal meaning and application. Their significance can be tested at face value and they will stand. Let him that think he standeth, take heed lest he falls. Check and. Double check to be sure. No one is an island of knowledge therefore in all your getting, get wisdom- proactive, practical use of knowledge; and get understanding- insight into the realities of life. It would guide your decisions and see you through in your chosen path.
