The amount of information at our fingertips has grown so much, that now the hardest part is not getting it. Now, the problem is actually filter good from bad information.
Even finding relevant information can be a problem, since the shear volume it can be overwhelming.
To be able to actually find the information you need, or want, requires time to actually look and process a lot of data. One must read, or watch, articles from several sources to be able to compare and verify that the information you are getting is actually useful, and what you are looking it for.
One must have the criteria to be able to discern what information is relevant, and useful, for what are you going to use it. And it's important to get it from as many different sources as possible. This is actually very helpful to create your own opinions and try to get a bigger picture of what is going on.
No one has the whole truth, so getting a sense of why and what is going from several places helps to get a better understanding of our world.
If you get a better understanding of what is going on around you, it'll help you make better decisions. And also, it'll make you a valuable asset for those around you.
Knowledge is power, and is quickly becoming a valuable commodity in our world. So, find an area that interest you, and where you are good at, and acquire as much useful information as you can.
