Learn From Experience

"Experience is not what happens to a man; it is what a man does with what happens to him." -- Aldous Huxley

What was your peak experience of this past week? What was your most challenging experience? Stepping back to review your week can offer many insights. Normally we can’t see the forest for the trees. Now back away and see the whole forest. Review your week. Now write a short summary -- whatever comes to mind for you. If action is required, plan how you will accomplish it in the next week.

"Ask the experienced rather than the learned." -- Arabic proverb

"Experience is that marvellous thing that enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again." -- Franklin P. Jones
