I think this topic is about learning through life experiences. Sometimes people make mistakes but they learn from them. What they learn is a life lesson that they will remember and not repeat the same mistake again.
I think some life lessons can help people. For instance, if you learn the value of time management, it will help you in terms of productivity with your career choice. Another life lesson can be heartbreak. By learning this it helps you become stronger in future relationships.
I feel life lessons are very important. Life lessons are best understood if you are rational and are willing to learn from them. To some extent in order to learn from life lessons you need an open mind!
