Knowledge is often seen as the key to success, but not all knowledge is beneficial. Knowing a lot about something inaccurate or useless is a waste of energy. We live in an age of information overload. So it's essential to distinguish between inaccurate, useless information and valuable knowledge. Having a lot of data or information about something does not mean it is correct, true, or useful. Let's start by differentiating between inaccurate, useless information and valuable knowledge. Information is data. There are five key traits that distinguish between useful and useless information: 1. Accuracy is information free from mistakes and errors, reflecting facts or reality. 2. Completeness indicates that all necessary and expected information is present. 3. Reliability refers to the consistency and trustworthiness of the data. 4. Relevance signifies that the information directly relates to the specific topic or context. 5. Timeliness ensures the data is current and up to date for the period it is needed or used. Information becomes sound knowledge when it is accurate, complete, reliable, relevant, and current. Knowledge that fits this criteria is the most useful. It is often the culmination of analysis, critical thinking, and the examination of evidence. Science is based on the quest to find answers using this level of data. As discoveries are made, they expand our knowledge. It is the process that builds upon and corrects our understanding.

Three Pillars of Sound Knowledge To understand this concept better, let’s look at three key pillars of knowledge: breadth, depth, and versatility.
