Wisdom is a holistic concept. It is an outcome of a developed ( or rather self-realized) personality. The components of wisdom, thus, cannot reorganize themselves to make wisdom. These analytical techniques are for those who are analytically bent.
The characteristics of a wise person are:
W
illDevelop your will. This is the first step to become a wise person.
An effective will is the mark of a wise person. This will should be differentiated from the stubbornness which is actually neurosis. Your will should not be ill to you or to others. It should not ‘kill’ yourself or others. It should not neither be a weak will nor be a very strong will of the type of stubbornness. It should be a warm will that is positive to you and others.
To develop such a will, first know the stages of will and develop your will stage by stage.
The
FIRST stage is to have a goal.Start with a
SMART goal. Only smart goals can make you more smart; only smart goals can bring smart results.smart means -

The FOURTH stage is to the affix your decision.
Fix Your
FOEs.Your real foes are FLAG Obstinacy EGO.
Flag symbolizes category and thus implies closedness. Closedness limits yourself by cramping your self-improvement. To be under a flag forces you to develop a I am OK You are Not OK attitude rather than the I’m OK, You’re OK attitude. So it is better not to be under any of the flags. Be open and accepting/receptive. Understand that everything that exists has a place ( & time).
FLAG
means Fear Laziness Anger/Aggression Greed. Fix these foes. These are your real foes. To fix means to destroy. So find ways go beyond the categories you are trapped in. One way is to become more and more open-minded.You should also learn to remove your fears, laziness, anger/aggression, greed. Some of the techniques to achieve these are described in the
Psychology Page of this site.EGO
is also the source of all problems. Learn how to dissolve the ego. The more prominent your ego is the more vulnerable it is. Practise meditation (Holistic Integration Technique: HIT) and the Disidentification Technique: DITClick Here to get HIT delivered to your inbox as an email

EGO
is Envy (and jealousy) Gambling Oscillation. Do away with your envy & jealousy, gambling and oscillation. Know why you become jealous/envious, why you gamble and why you are emotionally unstable. Ask yourself and find the answers yourself.So your foes are: flag, fear, laziness, anger, greed, obstinacy, ego, envy & jealousy, gambling, oscillation of mind. Learn how to destroy these foes.
‘Destroy’ your social/human foes by making them your friends. But never destroy them physically. Understand that
FOEs (=enemies and the expansion of FOE) are also a source of motivation. Many of us are what we are today because of our foes – we have been trying to out grow our foes or to show them we are worthy and thus to abase them. So foes ( or competition) help you improve yourself with their constant (apparent) background threats.On approaching from the positive end, FOE is Faith Optimism Enthusiasm. Have faith in yourself and your powers. Be optimistic and enthusiastic. Fix (=affirm) these FOEs.
By fixing and affixing the FOEs and then fixing your decision, you can effectively act upon it.

Imagination is the single tool that both the artist the scientist and the entreprenuer require the most.
Everyone needs imagination. Develop your imagination.
