CURE THE DISEASE
Disease is an ailment that makes us not be ourselves anymore, we find ourselves uncomfortable, we can never be healed not until we are cured.
There are different types of diseases we can encounter which can cause us more harm than good if we fail to curb them.
Now, I'm going to talk about a disease which is known as ignorance.
Yeah, ignorance is a disease being faced by many people, and they find it difficult to be healed from it because they think they know it all. Why don't you find a way to curb this disease called ignorance.
Ways to curb ignorance
1) Be ready to learn: some people find it difficult to learn what they don't know because they think that what they know is the best, they will never want to learn new ideas, which will prevent them to try out new things, but when you learn from other you will gather ideas to achieve anything you want to do in life.
2) Drop your ego: one of the properties of ignorance is ego, you find it difficult to come down to anyone level.
Some people's ego has deprived them of getting favor from others maybe they think they are bigger than the person which I count as ignorance if care is not taken if you don't drop that so-called ego, you aren't going anywhere. so it's better to curb it.
3) listen to correction: always admit to your mistakes and be ready to listen to correct, if you don't listen to corrections, still the same thing as having ego.
"If someone corrects you, and you feel offended, then you have an ego problem"
~ Nouman Ali Khan ~
So why don't you drop the ego?
Why don't you listen to correct?
Always be ready to learn
Don't die of ignorance, try to curb it by taking the cure for it. When you know you don't know, try to learn.

Yes ignorance is like a disease and sadly seems to be spreading more these days
Great advice on how to deal with it
Found my was to your post via @dreemport

It will continue to spread viral if it not stopped.
Some people don't even want to learn, they prefer to stay without learning any, not because of anything but may be feeling too big to learn from someone.
Being ignorance deprive us from many things, taking every of our little opportunity to learn something new.
I appreciate you for stopping by
Sadly I totally agree with what your saying
I wouldn't call ignorance a disease mainly because many people have no means to acquire knowledge. Poverty, social classification and even geographical positioning could be reasons for ignorance.
But letting your ego get in the way of learning or not being amenable to correction (which again is egoistic) could be the disease itself.
However, many people think ignorance is bliss or have the attitude that I am correct and I don't need to be told anything.. that is where the fault lies.
Being full of ourselves just doesn't help us to acquire knowledge.

You hit the nail on it's Head ma'am @sofs-su , it is true that majority of people don't know it , but refusing to learn makes them a fool.
Someone who wants to learn must be ready to be humble to do the needful.
Ego is corrosive, it will deprive us from many opportunities , so will be of great benefits to drop the ego and be ready to assimilate new teaching.
I appreciate you're contribution on this Post.
Glad you see some value in the points i brought up Mary. I appreciate it very much.
There are curable diseases but then as you have said about ignorance it's to me a disease with bites deeper than any other and leaves scars but great care should be taken as you have provided. One must follow the mentioned points.
I am directed to your post through @dreemport and loved your write up
When ignorance is not cured it will end up to a thing you'll get to regret for the rest if your life.
Stopping too low to learn from others will cost us nothing, but will cost us a lot if we let ignorance take over us.
Thanks for stopping by.
Ignorance is indeed a diseases. Funnily enough the carriers of this dreaded disease are not aware.
The factors listed above are strong cure for ignorance.
If ignorance is lack of knowledge, then the presence of knowledge will cause ignorance to disappear. That's why I like your first point,
@dreemport
Anyone that fails to learn cannot move forward, but rather remain in a spot like a stagnant water.
We should be ready to learn things that will make us stand out.
I appreciate your contribution.
Yeah! learning is how we develop ourselves.
Self-improvement isn't possible without learning.
You're welcome.
