Do you always agree that "Experience is the best teacher"?

They saying here, is "You learn by your mistakes".. and people do..

BUT.. I guess it depends on how willing or capable you are to learn..

some people know they are wrong but continue to make the same mistake over and over..

Definitely not. Rational thinking has carried me farther than those dependent on experiential knowledge.

Not always sometimes you can learn from others without experiencing it first hand

For certain people

Depends.

Sometimes

Yeah, i think so. Obviously learning from others experience counts, I mean we dont all have to expose our self to a neurotoxin to know that it's a bad idea, but we should all have grasped a nettle or pissed off a wasp to learn their particular danger...
