Knowledge is Not Power… But Knowledge Can Be Power!

The true champion of the downtrodden is someone who dissuades people from their misconceptions about the important truths in this life.

We have been told, ever since we were little, that true power resides in knowledge and wisdom.

‘Knowledge is power!’ goes the old saying, indicating that by gaining knowledge, you can be powerful'.

But if that was the case, philosophers and scientists would be ruling over the world by now.

Evidently, there is more to this ancient saying than our common and shallow interpretation.

You always hear students whining about the uselessness of mathematics and complex equations in their daily life.

‘What is the point of learning something if you cannot use it?’ They ask.

The same question can be asked of almost everything we learn in our lifetime.

Our philosophical beliefs, our mindset and ideas about the future, our thoughts on economy and society…

All of these are things we learn from other people and brilliant minds that have shaped the foundation of communal life on Earth.

Many of you are constantly moved by what you read on this blog, but most people tend to forget what they read after two days.

How many of my concepts and methods do you think have been implemented over the years?

The answer may be disappointing, but the question raised is worth your thoughts.

You see, gaining knowledge is not going to assure your path to success, but implementing your wisdom on a daily basis can!

Knowledge does not inherently breed power, but it can be used to manipulate the occurrence of things in the world surrounding you.

The more knowledgeable you are, the more capable you will prove when it comes to solving problems that require a sharp mind and a profound wisdom.

Without action or motion, knowledge is just the idea of learning something and forgetting it after a while.

Eighty percent of what you learn in school, at the very least, is lost to you as time passes.

The equation of life is a little more complicated than that.

If you refuse to learn about necessary things and then implement those things in your life, you are doomed to experience failure over failure until your days are over.

Assume that the collective intelligence in the world is just a ladder that can help you climb the stairs of success.

Without that motion, the ladder is just a ladder you can watch from afar.

From now on, approach the ladder and start climbing!
