You're over complicating and over thinking a practical day to day life skill, it also doesn't take years to develop as it's a natural ability that everyone has but very few these days use it.Exactly, and by spending years being educated and talking about the world and events, it can learn wisdom by studying the mistakes of others, and discuss other ways of doing it with people.
Wisdom is built on a mountain of mistakes.
They do not have to be your own mistakes.
The best advice to give anyone on it is to follow their instincts and trust their intuition.
What you are talking about is Phronesis or the practical application of wisdom or intelligence relevant to practical actions. While they are similar they are not the same. As it deals with ethics, habits and morality.
