Knowledge that knowledge is not power is power.

My profile for my university job states 'In the communication age, knowledge is power. Find your power.' It didn't take me too long to realise that this is actually complete rubbish.

If the greatest ideas in the world were stuck in the mind of someone without the ability to communicate them, then they're completely useless. More importantly, if the knowledge of these ideas isn't enacted upon and turned into real-life actions, what good are they?

Knowledge that knowledge is not power is power. Once you know this, you know that action is power. Find your power.
