Wisdom begins with ...

There are things that God can help you and there are things that God cannot help you. If you know this, you have wisdom.

There are things you can do and there are things you cannot do. If you know this, you have wisdom.

There are things you have to do and there are things that you shouldn't do. If you know this, you are wise.

There are times that you have to work hard and try hard. But there are times that you have to stop working and wait. If you know this, you are wise.

There are things that God wants you to do. There are things that God does not want you to do. If you know this, you are wise. Wisdom begins with this kind of discernment.

We can find similar notes of the necessity of human limitations and humbling attitude in our lives in chapter 71 of Tao Te Ching:

知不知上 不知知病
夫唯病病 是以不病
聖人不病 以其病病 是以不病

Transliteration: jibuljisang bulgigibyung
 buyubyungbyung siibulbyung
sunginbulbyung igibyungbyung siibulbyung

Knowing you don't know is the best (acknowledge that you are limited).
Sickness is that while you don't know you pretend to know.
If you are aware of a sickness, it is no more a sickness (if you know you are sick, there is a way to cure).
A wise person does not have a disease because he or she acknowledges the sickness. That is not a disease.
