paragraph on experience is the best teacher
Answers
Answer:
We have all heard of the proverb ‘Once bitten twice shy’. This itself exemplifies how well we learn from our experience. Personal experiences leave an indelible impression on our minds that are more lasting and invaluable. Like a good teacher, her lessons are very thorough and we can only ignore it, to our own peril.
Experiences are thorough:
Experiences could be good, like helping a person in need, or it could be bad like losing money on a risky investment. However, what is important, is that we learn from them, so that we can profit from our good experience, while at (the same time steer clear from those which are potentially harmful to us. Ask a child not to play with a match box for it can harm him, will probably have no impact on him, but once he has scorched his hand by the match stick, he will never in his lifetime forget this lesson. Thus we learn very meticulously from personal experience, rather than by adhering to advise of others, or by reading about them from books or periodicals.
We should learn from experience or folklore
It is however a wise man who learns from the experiences of others, like his parents, teachers or those elder to him. He also profits from books that are a virtual treasure house of knowledge and experience of others, for in the words of Francis Bacon,
“some books are to be tasted others swallowed and some few to be chewed and digested”.
The biography of great statesmen, proverbs and folklore are a veritable gold mine of knowledge, with which we can enrich ourselves. It is indeed unfortunate to find people learning from bitter experiences in their practical life, such age old truths as “all that glitters is not gold,” “a bird in hand is worth two in the bush,” and ” Honesty is the best policy.” Once experienced they are unlikely to repeat it in their lives.
Personal experience is the best, but some times comes too late.
We learn from everything we do, in fact life is one great journey of learning. We learn patience and forbearance when faced with adversity, courage in the face of danger and wisdom from our mistakes of omission and commission. It is however unfortunate, that some of us learn this lesson very late in life, when it is too late. Thus we find many people ignoring the simple dictum of ‘health is wealth’, to later regret it when their life becomes a wretch.
Conclusion:
We should learn from our, as well as experiences of others.
“Life is brief — a little hope, a little dream and then goodnight”. In this short span of life we should therefore, not only learn from our own experience but should also profit from the experience of others. This would save us from many a pitfall and the unnecessary labour that goes with it, which is akin to ‘inventing the wheel’.

Answer:
“Experience is the best teacher” is an old cliché but I agree with that. Although some people think that best way to learn about life is by listening to our elders and friends, I believe that people learn the best by their experiences. Learning by our own experiences is long lasting and provides better learning. Most of all, learning by our own experiences help people to become more mature and ready to tackle difficulties of life.
First of all, chapters we learn through our own experiences are long lasting. We remember those lessons for long time and always remember not to repeat them again. On the other hand, if we learn from our friends and families, we forgot those things pretty quickly. As we don’t go through that process ourselves, we over look their advices and suggestions. But, when we go through the obstacles and hurdles our selves, we experience whole process. These hands on experiences help us to remember our journey and keep us alert for long time.
Second of all, In addition to extended impact, learning by experiences is most informative and understandable. When we realize something ourselves, we understand them more and research more. These experiments and inferences help us to master that subject. Consider, for example, chemistry is very tough subject but when we practice same formulas again and again, we learn more. Same things apply to the experiences of life.
Finally, our experiences about own life help us to mature. When we are in teenagers, we learn to make friends. When we a university students, we learn how to build our carrier. Same way, when we get married, we learn how to take the responsibly of family. Learning is a lifetime process. We must learn some thing from our life to make our future better and ready to take care of hardships our lives.
Overall, although I believe that we learn many things from our family and friends such as social skills, trust and love, I think that learning from our own experiences are long lasting. Experiences also help us to learn more and better prepared for the future.
