There are countless arguments about words that we often don’t understand the way someone else might.
Words like education, learning, merit, talent, skill, privilege, smart and successful.
They might not mean what we think they do.
Well-educated isn’t the same thing as smart.
Talents are different than skills.
Learning is not the same as education.
Successful isn’t the same as rich.
Agreeing on what we mean is a great place to begin.
