Why can't knowledge change fate?

The famous British philosopher Bacon once said: Knowledge is power!

But everything has two sides. On the one hand, people attach importance to knowledge, on the other hand, they are anxious about knowledge, and they are always afraid of falling into a bad situation of competition because of lack of knowledge. Therefore, they try their best to acquire knowledge through various channels. Knowledge is a good thing, but it is not necessarily a good thing to pursue knowledge desperately just to acquire it.

In fact, if knowledge only stays in the brain, it has no power; Knowledge can only be transformed into strength through action. This kind of power can not only create wealth, change life, but also promote social progress.

I remember learning to swim or ride a bike when I was a child. After all these years, I can still swim and ride a bike. I will never forget it, because it is not just knowledge, but a part of my ability. Therefore, it is not knowledge that really changes fate, but the improvement of one's ability brought by this knowledge. Knowledge plus action, knowing how to apply what you have learned, knowledge will become ability. Knowledge is easy to forget, but ability will never be forgotten. However, the ability is not obtained by reading books or watching videos, but by practice and training.

So, how can knowledge be transformed into ability? We can try to recall how we learned to swim and ride a bike. Did you learn it at home by reading textbooks and watching videos? Obviously not. But after a series of practice and training, we put what we have learned into practice, make unremitting efforts to do and try, and then we learn. When we not only know, but also do, we have a certain ability.

In this era of knowledge anxiety, we should not only satisfy our thirst for knowledge, but also be able to turn knowledge into real ability. Just like learning to ride a bike and learn to swim, turning them into lifelong abilities, our lives will get better and better every time our abilities are upgraded!
