During an master program scholarship in HEC Paris, one interviewer ask me this question: " nowadays people says i am smart, if they really smart then why don't they find the solution of every problem?" Can anyone guide me what is the correct answer? Thanks 😊

Many people may claim that they are smart to impress the interviewers so as to prove their merit but the reality is that the majority of people are "wise fools." They know what's global warming, ozone depletion, murder, rape etc. They also suggest plenty of ways to overcome such problems in various interviews, exams, worskshops etc. But in real life people fail to apply their knowledge and wisdom to fight against the important worldly affairs coz they may be just too scared or coward to overcome their narrow-mindedness or may still be under the clutches of superstitions. Only a small percentage of people are able to apply their knowledge and wisdom in real life to overcome the wordly problems but again due to lack of mass and support, their objective fails.
