Let not a single day pass without your learning a verse, half a verse, or a fourth of it, or even one letter of it; not without attending to charity, study and other pious activity.

One destitute of wealth is not destitute, he is indeed rich, but the man devoid of learning is destitute in every way.

A learned man is honoured by the people.A learned man commands respect everywhere for his learning. Indeed, learning is honoured everywhere.

Look around at things that just aren't getting done. Maybe there's a project you could tackle. Maybe there's an issue that always gets back-burnered for other priorities. Challenge yourself to take on those difficult assignments. They're learning opportunities, and you have a chance to change something for the better.

When learning is purposeful, creativity blossoms. When creativity blossoms, thinking emanates. When thinking emanates, knowledge is fully lit. When knowledge is lit, economy flourishes.

Each time you fail, you have eliminated another wrong option.
