Good   judgement is the result of experience. Experience is the result of bad   judgement\". <\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The moral - according to the radio presenter - is that FAILURES we go through in life (often as a result of bad judgements   we make) actually TEACH us THE useful lessons we need to learn in order   to make better judgements that will ultimately enable us achieve   success.<\/p>\n<h3>Lots of people actually use quotes like this on a daily   basis. What puzzles me however is that in spite of the fact that they   KNOW these quotes... <\/h3>\n<p><strong>(a) Many people refuse to view failure as offering any positive benefits<\/strong>. <\/p>\n<p>Evidence of this shows in how they look down on those they observe to be failing. <\/p>\n<p>And also in how they AVOID it or HIDE all evidence of it when it happens to them. <\/p>\n<p><strong>(b) Fewer people these days are willing to put in the needed time and effort to acquire relevant EXPERIENCE<\/strong> which is an essential requirement for becoming MORE capable of making good judgements. <\/p>\n<p>So many people seem to be in a hurry - no   time to apprentice. They want to jump in and get made INSTANTLY. If   necessary, they'll cut corners. <\/p>\n<p>But long term authentic success does not come that way. <\/p>\n<p>Like the radio presenter   pointed out, a lot of successful people we know actually started out by   recording a lot of failures, till they learnt enough to succeed. <\/p>\n<h3><strong>It's so easy to quote these famous quotes. But DOING what the quotes say is a totally different proposition<\/strong>. <\/h3>\n<p><em>Fearlessly applying the wisdom from success quotes CAN help us achieve seeming miracles in our lives over time. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>And by the way, it is very often those   people who have done it the right way (i.e. those who have achieved   authentic success by following the rules mentioned above), that are able   to DRAW from their wealth of experience based knowledge and wisdom to   utter quotable quotes about how to do what they have done. <\/p>\n<p><strong>They are always full of experience based   wisdom, which they effortlessly volunteer for use by others. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By   following the same proven process, EACH one of us can also over time   develop to the point where the words we say get put on marble, for   others to learn from. <\/p>\n<p>We can start this process by forming the habit of APPLYING the wisdom of success quotes diligently in our daily lives.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>PS: <\/strong>This article is based on an original piece first published on 15th October 2009 by Tayo K.
