Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do.?

Question

What is your definition on this quote?

Answer 1

Here's a quote I use with children often:

"The world needs dreamers. And, the world needs doers. But, what the world needs most are dreamers who can do."
anonymous

Answer 2

It doesn't matter if you know a particular subject inside out when u don't apply what u have learned. The knowledge will not be committed to your brain permanently.

Willing to do something is also not enough, U have to do it. Willing to change your lifestyle to cut down boys night to 1 night and spend the rest of the night with your spouse it not enough, u have to do it. Saying is easier than done.
"NATO" = no action, talk only

Answer 3

Ummm- I do not like this quote. It is a bit disturbing superego-I-will-solve-the-problems-of-the-universe personality- .Although the implication is noble, we must accept with humility that most of the things we can do and apply some action to is limited-
so It is better to say that if it is within the scope of our control, we will do the best we can.

Answer 4

there is nothing to add,it has already been said, so you must just DO IT.

Answer 5

"Thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one's thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world.”

“If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that”

“Doubt can only be removed by action.”

“Everything is simpler than you think and at the same time more complex than you imagine”

“If you must tell me your opinions, tell me what you believe in. I have plenty of doubts of my own.”

Answer 6

I think it means that you can't just know, you must use that knowledge, and you can't just be willing to do something, you must do it!

Answer 7

it is good to acquire knowledge but knowledge is worthless if you do not use it in life. wanting to do something and planning to do it is a very good thing, but this will and planning is not worth anything unless we do something about it and make the plans come to life.

Answer 8

I'm sorry, but the quote is pretty straight forward in its meaning... If you're not smart enough to be able to draw your own conclusions as to its meaning, you need to study harder... So go do it!!
