Stay Away From Envy and Selfish Ambition

To becomer really wise with the wisdom that comes down from heaven, here are the tips from the bible, taken from the book of James.

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil. For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.
--- James 3:13-16


Show a good life, stay away from every evil practice-things like envy and selfish ambition, and with the wisdom from heaven, we'll live our days in a better way.
