The great end of education is to discipline rather than to furnish the mind; to train it to the use of its own powers, rather than fill it with the accumulation of others.

Learn to interpret information. What other people feed you may not be the total picture, may be jaded or biased.
What you learn from books may be obsolete, but a good start to the subject.
If you know what the subject entails and you know how to research information then you are truly on the way to learning.

The result of education should be to learn, rather than to memorize; to learn how to think for ourselves, rather than to fill our heads with what others have learned.

I'm not sure an explanation will help you understand. Experience is the way to learn this. Never give up.
