- Knowledge facilitates acquisition, optimizes application, and triggers and accelerates knowledge creation.
- The benefits of knowledge are exceptional:
- makes learning easier.
- brings more knowledge and improves the quality and speed of thinking.
- helps individuals hone thinking skills.
- makes the knowledge-rich richer and smarter; and
- is cumulative and grows exponentially.

- Working memory is often referred to metaphorically as a space to emphasize its limited nature; one can maintain only a limited amount of information in working memory.
- Knowledge enhances thinking in two ways.
- First, it helps you solve problems by freeing up space in your working memory.
- Second, it helps you circumvent thinking by acting as a ready supply of things you've already thought about.
- How knowledge brings more knowledge.
- The more you know, the easier it will be for you to learn new things.
- Learning new things is actually a seamless process, but in order to study it and understand it better, cognitive scientists have approached it as a three-stage process.
- And they've found that knowledge helps at every stage: as you first take in new information, as you think about this information, and as the material is stored in memory.
- How knowledge helps you solve problems.
- If you don't have sufficient background knowledge, simply understanding the problem can consume most of your working memory, leaving no space for you to consider solutions.
- How knowledge improves thinking.
- Knowledge enhances thinking in two ways. First, it helps you solve problems by freeing up space in your working memory. Second, it helps you circumvent thinking by acting as a ready supply of things you've already thought about.
- How knowledge helps you think about new information.
- Comprehending a text so as to take in new information is just the first stage of learning that new information; the second is to think about it. This happens in what cognitive scientists call working memory, the staging ground for thought.
- How knowledge helps you circumvent thinking.
- It's not just facts that reside in memory; solutions to problems, complex ideas you've teased apart, and conclusions you've drawn are also part of your store of knowledge. A considerable body of research shows that people get better at drawing analogies as they gain experience in a domain.
