Knowledge is cheap, ubiquitous, indexed, accessible, and portable. It is no longer power. The new power is wisdom. It is the ability to make choices that generate the best results and outcomes.

Yes, wisdom is a very important factor.

There is so much knowledge flying around these days, much of it wrong.

You have to be discerning in the knowledge that you choose to act upon.

I believe that action is the crucial factor.

For without action, knowledge and wisdom can do nothing.

(Except if it is the wise thing to take no action on something :-)

cheers,

I'll subscribe to your theory, but I also like Einstein's contribution that "Imagination is More Important Than Knowledge." Knowledge and wisdom can be driving forces, but imagination let's us (here goes my most hated expression) "think outside the box." Another great post!
