How do you know?
Do you know because you were there, or do you think you know because someone told you about their experience either in person or through their writings?
If you don’t know someone who has experienced something then you are very likely to learn many lessons in hard and painful ways. Unless, or course, you can read about them, understand them and avoid the hard and painful experiences.
But to do that, of course, you must make a conscious effort to read and understand what others have written – preferably before you are faced with a situation where prior knowledge would be extremely helpful.
Have you read something recently that will help you gain knowledge and wisdom or will you take your chances on being wrong in a critical situation?
Only you can choose.
