Do you ever wonder how we’ve found ourselves in the big messes we’re in as people and as a country? Apparently, the Why to all of this is that we’ve stopped being wise. The good news is that we don’t have to be brilliant to be wise, but the bad news is that without brilliance, wisdom isn’t enough.

From the TED talks –

“Barry Schwartz makes a passionate call for “practical wisdom” as an antidote to a society gone mad with bureaucracy. He argues powerfully that rules often fail us, incentives often backfire, and practical, everyday wisdom will help rebuild our world.”
