I can't help it, I love these clever quotes... they are like a 'Hai-Ku'
that tries to capture a thought in as few words as possible... 

It reminds me of the saying 'Ignorance can be fixed..., stupid is
forever.'
Or 'evil reigns when good men do nothing'... A lot of good people didn't
'do nothing' when they saw that something needed correcting... and they
'acted' or spoke up and shared their thoughts on the matter... :)

I do not believe the 'problem' is 'Lack of knowledge'... (it seems to me
there is a great deal of knowledge here in this group) if it was
however, it could be 'fixed' with some effort and training. It just
requires a willing learner and a willing knowledgeable teacher and a
little 'sharing' to get the job done. I suppose that not everyone will
'get it'. But we can be patient and encouraging and help one another
other along... :)

All three statements below are very true.  Survival is in reality an
'option' and is conditional... not mandatory. You CAN fail... (and we
often do before we learn something new)...  But most of us don't like
that option, failing... and most are motivated to survive/succeed.
Knowledge of a thing is not a solution in and of itself... it needs to
be used, applied correctly to the problem to solve it. The 'Process'
statement below is very good. :) And typically not everything can be
'known'... success is a moving target, a living changing thing requiring
us to continually learn if we want to 'survive'. Another one... 'The
more you know, the more you realize that you don't know.' Love that one
too... 

One last old saying, 'opinions are like 'noses' everyone has one'... now
we have read Mr. Smith's opinion... and can move on. Happy Friday... :)

Performance You Require. Value You ExpectTM

---------------------------------


If you can't describe what you are doing as a process, you don't know
what you're doing. 

Lack of knowledge... that is the problem. 

It is not necessary to change . . . Learning is not compulsory . . .
Survival is not mandatory.
