Kevin,
John Maxwell’s quote is very informative indeed. I am very familiar with it too. Reflective experience is a priceless tool for me on a daily basis. A few years back I came up with one quite similar…Life is the classroom and experience is the teacher. Something like that anyway. I cannot get enough of learning either. I like to read books from authors who propose questions such as the ones you post. With that in mind, I’d like for you to recommend some books that I could read that you find to be insightful. If you wold not mind. When I buy a book to read, I reflect on what the late great musician Warren Zevon once said. He was talking about learning and he said books, for him, was an excellent source of learning. About buying books, he said, “When we buy books to read, we think buy the time to read them.” I shall never forget that. Often times when I visit friends, I ask about a book they have that they are reading. Nearly 100% of the time they say, oh it’s about this or, it’s about that…or whatever…then they say something like, I started to read it but haven’t found the time to read it. And again I think of what Warren Zevon said. Very powerful quote.
Anyway thank you for your feedback. I am not sure if my answer entertains your questions correctly but I hope they at least shed some light on what you were looking for. Speaking of looking, I look forward to more of your posts.
Enjoy a good day my friend…
