Knowledge Condensed, Wisdom Amplified.
Understanding only becomes useful when we adjust our behavior and actions accordingly.
The first flaw is perspective. We have a hard time seeing any system that we are in.
The third flaw is distance. The further we are from the results of our decisions, the easier it is to keep our current views rather than update them.
When understanding is separated from reality, we lose our powers. Understanding must constantly be tested against reality and updated accordingly.
Our failures to update from interacting with reality spring primarily from three things: not having the right perspective or vantage point, ego-induced denial, and distance from the consequences of our decisions.
