Using What You Already Know

Life is a learning experience where typically everyday an individual learns something new. All sources of acquired knowledge can be carried on with one, and in a situation of complications, one can use their knowledge to resolve any predicaments. In the case of Pi Patel, since he was at sea for 227 days, he had to have the ability to swim. Luckily for him, at a young age, he learned something incredible from his uncle Mamaji. Mamaji taught Pi how to swim and in result of that, Pi have the chance to survive the tragedy.

As humans, it is important to attempt to gain as much information as possible because it is unsure of when abilities may come in hand.
