Strive to first "Know" - In order to understand -
And therefore "Know "exactly what you are
talking about,saying -
before you proceed to say it!

The phrase “Understand - therefore Know”
implies a sequence where comprehension precedes knowledge.

Here’s what it suggests:
Understand First:
To truly gain knowledge about a subject, you need to first understand it.
This means delving deeply into the context,
nuances, and details of the topic.

Know Through Understanding:
Once you have a clear and thorough understanding,
you can then acquire genuine knowledge.
This knowledge is based on informed
insight rather than superficial information.

In essence, it means that true knowledge is built upon a foundation of
deep understanding. Before claiming to know something,
one should first strive to fully comprehend it.

This approach helps avoid misunderstandings and
ensures that any knowledge you possess is accurate and well-informed.

We often hear, believe without thinking,without further delving
into what has been said us, further,
we tend to "repeat"what we were told as true,
when in reality, it may not be!

And then we proceed to point an accusing finger,
creating false assumptions,accusations,presumptions,
about others,yet we are not of their
race,religion,their culture,traditions,
have not mastered their language,etc.

Before making claims or accusations,
it's crucial to deeply understand what you're discussing.

Often, we believe and repeat information
without fully investigating its accuracy.

This can lead to misunderstandings and
false assumptions about others,
especially when we are not familiar with their
race, religion, culture, practices,beliefs,or language.

Understanding different cultures | Cultural identity:
Understanding a different culture.
You're living in a vibrant multicultural country,
so it's great that you want to understand cultures other than your own.

There are a few ways to do this, but the most important is to
remember that we're all just people who are trying to do the best we can.

To engage meaningfully and respectfully,
we should first strive to truly understand the subject matter.

Seek first to understand means to truly listen to people
when you engage in conversation.

It consists of listening with a totally open mind,
as if you were listening to what is being said for the first time.
