To Believe vs To Know

“When you believe, you assume that you know but you don’t know that you know.”

In order to create certainty, we must “know”; not believe.  Many incorrectly think or assume that because a thought, an opinion or an idea feels good to them therefore that thought, opinion or idea must be true.  Many are not aware that a feel-good thought or mental-state is at best a belief and not factually proven knowledge; therefore, it is integral that we distinguish between beliefs and knowledge.

A belief is not knowledge and to believe is not to know.
