What I Think I Know

“Just trying to do the hardest thing of all – to understand”

The transformation of data, or information, into knowledge requires time and effort

The transformation of data, or information, into knowledge requires time and effort

November 12, 2016 Nate

“…the transformation of data, or information, into knowledge requires time and effort. The more important the knowledge acquired, the more time and effort it takes to get it. Wisdom can take decades. Rules and principles – such as “love thy neighbor” or “buy low, sell high” – can take centuries to evolve.”
