Know how to act in pursuit of the good.
Prudence, or “practical wisdom,” is the cardinal virtue that consists in right reasoning and correct knowledge about what is to be done. The habit of prudence belongs to reason itself, rather than to the will or to any of the passions. It is what enables us to determine accurately what is the morally good thing to do under particular circumstances. Prudence, therefore, governs all other moral virtues and directs them to the ways that can best attain their own ends.
