Knowledge is not always power

Yes. You read that right.  Too much information these days.  So much so that people simply become collectors and do not act on any of it.

Worse are those who think that having the theoretical knowledge is sufficient. But not putting the theory into practice is mere thinking.

However, even worse than this in terms of learning is being waylaid by misinformation.  I went to a workshop the other day where well meaning but ultimately misinformed practitioners and researchers were leading people down the wrong path. 

So first you must find the good oil. True knowledge.  But even then you must not forget that the map is not the territory. You must practice it.

Only by dancing can one know the rhythm.

  Half heartedness doesn’t reach into majesty.
