Today, in the age of information, ignorance is a choice
Let me introduce you one of, in my humble opinion, most beautiful poems by Pablo Neruda:

Know your roots
This poem inspires on so many levels. Nowadays, in the age of information, the 4th industrial revolution, circumstances are changing faster than ever – the covid19 pandemic spoke for herself.
Educating and keeping current is crucial. And how can we do it? Deal with the root first.
Some of the ways are:
- Do not fall into a trap of hyper-rationality. Realise thatΒ where there is pain there is a potential for growth and education.
- Surround yourself with people who have somehow already reached the goal you are aiming for or are on the same mission as you are.
- Update your outdated mental operating system.
- Be humble. Be curious.
- Choose ease and flow.
This applies to whatever area of life we decide to educate ourselves. Do not wait, go now! Time can be your greatest enemy or ally, it all depends on what you decide!
Imagine, what if you could improve and use your emotional and mental energy by 90% more effectively?
