"在社会领域，有技能并能聪明地使用它们的人比没有技能并且无法展望未来的人更有可能被选择。"
— Noam Chomsky
Simplified Meaning:
People with skills that they use wisely are more likely to succeed than those without any skills or direction. For example, in a job interview, a person who knows how to do the job well and can show examples of their work is more appealing to employers than someone with no relevant experience or understanding. If you can fix problems or create something useful, you make yourself valuable. Imagine two friends wanting to start a business; the one who knows how to cook and manages a kitchen is more likely to start a successful restaurant than the one who just dreams about it but has never cooked. To apply this to your life, focus on learning and improving your abilities, then use them in smart ways, and you’ll find more opportunities coming your way.
