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
