True wisdom comes from experience, and the willingness to reflect on both successes and failures with an open heart.

so true, john! wisdom isn't just about reading books or listening to lectures, it's about living through stuff and actually learning from it. i've had my fair share of ups and downs, and honestly, it's those tough moments that taught me the most. like, remember that time when we totally messed up that project at work? it sucked so bad, but looking back, it was a turning point. we figured out what went wrong, made sure not to repeat the same mistakes, and came out stronger. those experiences shape us, man. an open heart and a willingness to learn - that’s the real deal. keep reflecting and growing, buddy! 🙌💪
