About This Quote

The only gift to yourself is your ability to seek knowledge. The world is a big place with a lot of things that we need to know. It’s good that we try to find out about them. However, it’s not good that we always go looking for something else when we have the answer in front of us. The world can be full of knowledge and if we don’t pay attention to it, we will miss opportunities.
