Metaphor is the only normal way to speak the truth. The truth is very simple and banal... Stupid people are not able to understand the meaning of simple and obvious things, they want secrets and riddles. Having done the work and guessed the riddle, they feel joy ...they feel like heroes.

Only a fool wants to become intelligent, because, realizing his stupidity, he seeks to know. The one who is already smart, thinks others are fools, reads very little ... and that is only what confirms his point of view. A smart person will never read something that contradicts his point of view... only a fool can do that.
To become smarter, you must first exhaust your stupidity. For stupidity is like water, and man is like a well. Therefore, first we teach stupidity, and then, denying it, one comes to wisdom.
True intuition occurs through the exhaustion and refinement of knowledge. Exhaustion occurs through the overflow. Overflow can be achieved by various means, including through experience.

The strategy is this: first one tells what he thinks, then the second will tell his vision. When your vision is told, you do not need to be shy and afraid. However ...you should refrain from criticizing and commenting on someone else's vision. Someone else's vision just needs to be taken into account and remembered. Keep in mind that everything looks different from a different paradigm. Your task: just compare your own paradigm and someone else's. You don't need to criticize someone else's paradigm or defend your own. We just become aware of someone else's view and compare it with our own, and that's all.
I noticed that learning from someone else's experience does not work. The experience of this movement. To learn how to move, you need to move. You can't learn to move just by observing someone else's movement.
