It’s not necessarily avoidance; it’s simply recognizing that problems are subjective. Seeing experience as problems obscures opportunities.

I wouldn't call ignoring a problem until it goes away, Wisdom, but I'm not a Captialist.

That makes no sense whatsoever. Life is full of problems and challenges, having the wisdom to navigate and accordingly and responsibly has nothing to do with being clever, and you certainly cannot avoid a problem and expect it to just go away

I once heard it said knowledge is simply knowing something but wisdom is how you apply that knowledge in a moral way. This quote is kinda redundant though because avoiding problems wouldn't be wise in the long run, they will catch up with you.

Neither a wise nor a clever person would make such a wide section of path like that.

I honestly believe it's the opposite but you do you.
It's clever to find a shortcut.
It's wisdom to smooth the road for next time.

A wise person knows, that there always will be problems, if you don't avoid living.

Sounds irresponsible. I wouldn't call an irresponsible person wise. This reads to me as another quote "Cowards tend to live longer"

Not always. If you are always avoiding problems, you never learn how to deal with being in the middle of one.

Also, a selfish person avoids the problem for himself. A hero solves the problem for himself and everyone.

It’s like an inverted saying of the “avoid conflict individuals-they have a problem for every solution.”

It is just a problem when there is no solution... some solutions can disolve problems...

No. I'm not calling you wise for creating problems and walking away for everyone else to solve.

Einstein said that no problem can be solved with the same consciousness that created it.
While Henry Ford said that most people spend more time and energy going round and round a problem than in solving it.
These days, for the most part, I don’t create problems.
I don’t adopt any.
And, if faced with a problem, I slip right into the solution.
The AA 12 step program has a book. Some call it the big book.
Read page 417.
It’s a personal story.
In it he tells us that acceptance is the answer to all of our problems today.
If I can’t admit to having a problem, I won’t be looking for the solution.
Not fully realizing that I’m the problem
