About This Quote
Experience is a sacred education. The word experience comes from the Latin term “experientia” which means to “learn by doing.” In essence, experience is a method of learning that involves the wisdom that comes from making mistakes and then being able to learn from them. Experienced people have learned how to face their fears and to overcome obstacles. They understand that life does not always go in a straight line, and they have learned how to adapt in different situations by overcoming their fears and problems.
