from knowledge to wisdom

i keep wondering how come most Africans have tremendous capacities to retain information but lack any sense of achievement or development. i have come to believe after several studies that, the main problem is the transformation of knowledge to wisdom. that is, the conversion of information to informed and planned action that is directed towards the achievement of goals and visions. many of us like reading, planning and imagining but when it comes to continuous consistent dedication to action, we fall short of the mark. students and young men need to commit to strategics and concrete drafting of detailed plans. the journey must not end with just the drafts, but must be accompanied by action and check up plans to facilitate the achievement of meaningful results. if we as the youth do not practice action oriented thinking and take charge in this 21st century we will have no to blame but ourselves. there is too much money to be made, too many sucesses to be chalked. lets transform our knowledge to wisdom, our plans to actions and our dreams to realities. here i go.
