Doing
Change
Self-education
To be silent oft
Educating the mind
Educating the heart
The art of ignoring
The making of meaning
The liveliest pleasure
Using experience wisely
Acquired knowledge or ideas
Acquiring skill by practice
Failure and recovery from failure
Staying with the questions longer
To attempt but a little at a time
Trying things to see if they work
A gift, even if pain is the teacher
A kind of natural food for the mind
Experience understood in tranquility
Remembering what we’re interested in
Discovering that something is possible
Going up alleys to see if they are blind
Seeing much, suffering much, and studying much
Experience - everything else is just information
Persistent questioning and healthy inquisitiveness
The kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel
Knowledge acquired by experience, experiment or observation
The knowledge of principles or facts received by instruction or study
Gaining knowledge by instruction or reading, by study, by experience or observation
Acquiring new understanding, knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, attitudes, and preferences
Lessening the obstacles, diminishing the friction, invigorating the energy, and training to react, not at haphazard, but by choice, on the lines of force that attract our world
