Learning and struggling in the industrial and permanent residential societies was very challenging for a young man who came from a nomadic society of the remote world. In this complicated and mystical world, I started learning "wisdom" to fulfill the need of surviving mode. I have finally understood the major difference between Nomadic, Industrial and Permanent Residential cultures and discovered the basic structure of wisdom has been used in all three types of societies over 30 years of learning from different spiritual, social groups and many different careers. Surprisingly, the structure of wisdom has been the focus of mankind for over thousands of years and luckily King Solomon had discovered the structural knowledge of wisdom and had embedded in his writings. The knowledge of wisdom has changed my perspective and condition since every successful person or event has to satisfy these seven core processes to land on success. The discovery of the seven pillars of wisdom (The fundamentals of King Solomon's mentoring program) will be a big help for those confused individuals who are lost.
