Knowledge V. Understanding
What is knowledge without understanding? It is like having the pieces to the puzzle in the box. You can rattle the box and make a lot of noise, but to no avail.
It is only when you fit the pieces of the puzzle together do you see the complete picture and understand.
This takes time. And this takes patience.
About 50 years ago, my Dad told me a fable. I have yet to locate the source. I believe it originated in Turkey because it contains wisdom and a rope woven from sand.
For want of a title I call it
The Business of Wisdom in Global Affairs.
How do you solve problems?
You Can't Fool the Lion
Let's say you tell everyone you're a lion tamer.
Everyone believes you. They have no reason to doubt you.
Anyone with questions about lion taming comes to you. You answer their questions with confidence and authority.
Then, one day, a lion walks into the room.
Everyone panics.
They run to you to save them.
And you panic.
Why?
Because you can't fool the lion.
