I’ve read hundreds of business and self-development books, and they were often helpful.

More Than Knowledge
Wisdom is infinitely different from mere knowledge. Knowledge is simply the acquiring of information. But acquiring information does not in itself create success, joy, or lasting fulfillment.
Understanding is learning how to distinguish between information that is true and practical, and information that is not. Understanding places great value on truth and its practical application.
Wisdom goes one step further. It takes those truths that have the greatest value and correctly applies them to situations, circumstances, or to life in general.
