“The
first step in the acquisition of wisdom is silence, the second- listening, the
third- memory, the fourth- practice, the fifth- teaching others”-Solomon Ibn Gabriol
“Silence makes you to keep your mouth shut so that
you can hear what is being said. We learn more when our mouths are shut than
when they are opened.
Listening helps you to internally keep what you have
heard when you were silent. We can memorize when we take our time to listen
very well to what is being said.
Memory aids you to put into practice what is being
kept for application. Without keeping data, you can’t have it processed in to
information. Keeping data and information; that’s what memory does.
Practice makes you perfect to become a master over
what you heard and kept. With that, you can also teach others the same thing
you learnt.
Teaching others guides you to share your success. It
crowns it that all that you have listened to, kept, memorized and practiced had
borne fruits. Success unshared is failure in disguise; it therefore means
wisdom unshared is also foolishness in disguise”
