Transforming Learning to Wisdom

When we acquire information; it stays in our short-term memory (we will forget in next one hour). When we understand the application along with benefit of the information - it goes to our mid-term memory (we may remember if for a few days). When we internalize and start practicing something, it goes into our long term memory. When we refine and improve upon the internalized and practiced information; the wisdom so created becomes part of us and comes natural. Remember, this is true for both Good & Bad information processed through this cycle.

The flow can be depicted as [World Around Us] > Observation & Gathering Information > Learning Application and Benefits > Internalizing Information > Practicing > Experiencing and refining > Accumulating Wisdom > Sharing and Continuing Observing and Learning.
