The Art of Getting the Right Things Done: How to Gain Wisdom Instead of Just More Knowledge

“Critical thinking is the ability to analyze, evaluate, and reason through information logically. It’s about questioning your and others’ assumptions, recognizing biases, and seeking evidence before forming conclusions.

Wisdom, on the other hand, transcends simple logic. It calls upon the spirit, not just the mind. It seeks the Light — the knowing of a matter. It discerns the unseen and weighs the good of every situation beyond mere logic.

Truth is only ever found in immutable reality, but what often serves us better is understanding — a deeper grasp that wisdom provides, aligning with the eternal rather than chasing fleeting facts.” – Sovereign Ipsissimus Dave Lanyon

In the past year, I had a hip replacement, got engaged, moved into a new home with my fiancé, and walked with him through the ups and downs of his liver disease. I continued running a law practice, took the Florida Bar exam — twice — and wrote two books. At the same time, I continued my mission as a Guide in the Lineage of King Salomon, initiating those ready to walk the path of progression.

People say if you want something done, ask a busy person. I might just be that person. But for the first time in my life, I also had to let some things go. I quit some commitments. I stopped doing things that no longer aligned with the quality I expect of myself or the service I offer others. Because when everything piles on, even the strong have to reevaluate.

So this year, I chose to attend only the required Professional Integration Days (PIDs) with the Modern Mystery School International, — not to pursue more training, but to honor my current bandwidth. I came in feeling a mix of pragmatism (yay, boundaries!) and a little FOMO over not diving deeper into the higher-level teachings.

But from day one, something was different. This wasn’t just another “recert.” It was real Light, real Teaching — the kind that delivers weeks’ worth of transformation in just a few days. And one of the biggest insights that landed for me?

The art of getting things done isn’t just about doing more.

On the surface, it seems simple: take action, get results. That’s Hermetic Principle #6 — Cause and Effect. Action leads to reaction, which leads to outcomes. Kabbalistically: Idea → Thought → Plan → Action = Result. Magickally: you place the ingredients in a container, add the right energy, and something new is born.

But here’s the nuance: you can accomplish a lot through sheer will. But at the end of the day,do you have anything meaningful to show for it? Have you gained wisdom, or just collected gold stars?

If I had focused only on being a good lawyer, I’d probably be a partner in a firm by now,and miserable. I’d have achievements and accolades, sure. But a hollow life. Thankfully, something deeper stirred in me,a knowing that just being “successful” by society’s standards wasn’t enough.

I wanted more. I needed joy. Fulfillment. Purpose. And when I didn’t have those things, I numbed the ache with food, alcohol, and distraction. Some people thought I should be grateful and settle. But I couldn't. The mundane was never my calling.

We don’t come into this world with an owner’s manual that tells us our purpose on page 42. We fumble, experiment, search. And if we’re fortunate, we encounter someone with a key,someone who helps us fumble more efficiently, and begin to uncover our own answers.

From a young age, I knew there was something greater. As a little girl talking to Jesus in my heart, I felt it. That drive led me to Catholic confirmation, then to studying Buddhism, and later to a degree in Philosophy. All gave me glimpses, but never the full picture.

What stuck with me from that academic journey was my advisor, Mr. West, who told me:

“These people,CEOs, world leader,they have degrees in philosophy. Logic and reasoning can take you anywhere. The others are just hoping someone will tell them what to do.”

And he was right. That skillset carried me through law school and beyond. But critical thinking alone doesn’t lead to fulfillment. For that, we need wisdom. And true wisdom doesn’t live in textbooks.

I found the key,my first real key,in May of 2014 at Healer’s Academy in Toronto.

I had no idea why I went. I had no plan to be an energy healer,I was a lawyer, a senior project manager. Where was that going to fit in? But something called me. And when I came home and gave my first Life Activation, everything changed.

It changed her life. And that changed mine.

In that moment, I discovered something far beyond the mundane: I had the power to help someone heal. To step into more joy and wholeness. And for the first time, I felt real fulfillment. The kind that isn’t logical, but undeniable. The kind that propels you forward through every obstacle.

That’s when everything in my life began to shift.

My partner at the time left. My home no longer felt like home. My job felt empty. The distractions lost their pull. So I did what felt right, I kept serving. I did mystic fairs. I gave rune readings. I coached. I opened my own business. I started teaching. And though my calendar was packed, my heart was full.

Service became my soul fuel.

I chose the Ritual Master path. Learned new modalities. Served more people. And when I saw the power of initiation changing lives, I knew: I couldn’t keep it to myself. I had to become a Guide.

With each step, I became a bigger version of myself. Not because I wanted to be “bigger” — but because I had to grow to hold the energy of the work. To live the magick. To be the living embodiment of the teachings. Not as a performance,but as a demonstration. A beacon.

So here I am, 14 years in, returning to Toronto for my 12th Professional Integration Day.

Grateful. Fulfilled. Wise.Not because I know everything, but because I’ve been willing to act, fall down, reflect, realign, and keep going.

I’ve learned that fulfillment lives on the other side of service. That wisdom is forged through aligned action. That getting things done isn't just about doing,it’s about doing the right things, in the right order, for the right reasons.

This isn’t just productivity. This is purpose-driven, soul-aligned action.

And that is how we become wise.
