Answer. 1

Wisdom is the thinking ability of individual which develops through experience, knowledge, calmness, common sense and insight.It uses different thinking abilities like unbiased judgement, non-attachment, virtues like benevolence and ethics.

Wisdom is not something that we get inherently. It develops with passage of time and experience.Wisdom can increase by doing new things.Trying news things helps person to store new data which helps in wisdom skill development.Secondly, communicating with different people from different culture, language, customs, traditions so that understanding of environment and society will increase with wisdom.Thirdly, try as many as possible because mistakes makes persons wisdom more lustrous and sharp.These four points help in development of wisdom.

Answer. 2

Intelligence is the ability of a person to think, learn and understand other people.It is different from Wisdom.
