“The problem with the next generation is they haven’t read the minutes of the last meeting.” – Richard Weaver
We are all breaking new ground – especially in this time of rapid change. But some things, important things, we don’t have to learn the hard way ourselves. Look at others who have come before us and learn; whether they were a few months ahead of us going through the same class, or 500 years or more ahead of us.
No sense having to learn it all the hard way; we just don’t have enough time for that.
We know that history will repeat itself, if we don’t learn from the previous experiences. If we read or listen to books and learn from previous experiences of others, we will certainly grow faster and make less mistakes along the way.
