I remember when I crashed my mom’s car.
My dad told me multiple times, “Son, roads are very slippery when wet; you must slow down!”
I ignored him.
Frequently my father showed me how to drive in rainy conditions. “Son, observe how slippery the roads are when raining. Feel how the car slides around when I go faster than I should.”
I ignored him.
Finally the day came when I found myself driving alone in rainy conditions. My dad had told me and showed me multiple times how I should drive on wet roads.
Yet, I ignored him.
Next?
Yes, I crashed.
Sadly, this was how I finally learned how to drive in rainy weather.
The best way to learn is not by listening or by observing how things are done; we best learn by doing!
Experience is our best teacher.
My father gave me the theory, he even demonstrated to me how to do it, yet, it was not until I experienced it that I fully learned the lesson.
If you really want to learn something, get out there and Start Doing.
Believe me, you WILL learn…
