CHAPTER 6 “Wake Up, Wise Up, Watch Your Walk”
CHAPTER 6 “Wake Up, Wise Up, Watch Your Walk”
Introduction
Chapter 6 lives right there. It’s the chapter that shakes your shoulder when you’ve been drifting, the one that flips the light on when you’ve been moving on autopilot, the one that reminds you that wisdom isn’t passive — it’s practiced. This is the chapter where Wisdom shows up not soft, not subtle, but with that firm, loving tone only someone who truly wants you to win can use. It’s about catching the drift before it becomes a detour. It’s about guarding your energy, your time, your name, your direction.
