One who says "I know that" will have their unconscious mind shut down to new teaching.
Instead, one should change the 3 words to the 4 words "Thank you for sharing" so that his / her unconscious mind does not block out new teaching.
Story
Once upon a time, there was a young man who wants to seek wisdom from a wise "teacher". He started off by sharing what he knows and about his past successes. He shared and shared and continued on for a long time bragging about achievements.
The "teacher" interrupted him and asked if he can serve some tea. The "teacher" poured the tea from a teapot into the small tea cups until it overflows and still did not stop pouring until the young man yelled at him saying "The cup is already full, don't pour anymore". The teacher said to him "Young man, to learn more, one has to empty the cup first. Otherwise, the additional "tea" will just overflow and never be able to be deposited into the cup.
The young man realized his actions and told the "teacher", "Thank you for sharing".
