Simplified Meaning:

Teaching and learning can be tough because it's not easy to turn thoughts and concepts into actual experiences. Imagine you’re reading a book about swimming. You can understand the theory of how to swim, like how to move your arms and legs, but until you jump into the pool and try it yourself, you won’t really know how to swim. In the same way, learning ideas from books or lectures is just the beginning. To truly understand and learn, you need to apply those ideas in real-life situations. For example, a medical student studying to become a doctor will learn a lot about diseases and treatments from textbooks. But to become a skilled doctor, that student must practice in hospitals, interact with patients, and see how real diseases affect real people. This hands-on experience helps turn the ideas learned in school into practical knowledge that is much more valuable. If you want to apply this wisdom in your life, try to find ways to practice what you learn. If you're studying a new language, don't just memorize the grammar rules – try speaking with native speakers. If you're learning about cooking, spend time in the kitchen, experimenting with recipes. Turning ideas into action makes your learning deeper and more meaningful.
