Principle of the Day

I think I prefer live and learn because, without living I feel that mankind learns nothing.

It's nice to turn that saying round into your principle. Much more pleasing!

Greetings @meesterboom ,

You are too kind as always ...happy to hear you found it pleasing. ^__^

Wouldn't it be remarkable if one could have learned it in childhood....or at least thought about it...

Kind Regards to you and your good lady,

The photos really are convincing to visit the beach soon.😊
Thank you.😊

True.. while living, let's learn too to have an essence in living. 😊

bleujay 2 months ago

Yes...learning first....does give opportunity to live the subject's essence/full intent/in a broader sense.

Happy to hear you enjoyed the photographs of the beach. ^__^

Thank you for your kind reblog.

Kind Regards, Bleujay

Greetings @tecnotronics ,

Thank you for dropping by with your kind compliment.

Your occupation came to mind as an excellent example to illustrate the principle.

Un buen ejemplo de un tema en el que uno debe conocer a fondo el tema antes de vivirlo sería en el campo de la electrónica... no habría muchas veces en las que se podría seguir la idea de 'Vivir y Aprender' antes de que ocurra algo grave.

Kind Regards, Bleujay

It's all a matter of attitude, I'll give you an example, 2 people are going to travel, when they return one says I'm happy, nice trip, the other the opposite and it's the same trip.
I wish you a happy start to the week

Interesting to evaluate some of our predispositions and look at it from a different angle!

In this case, I think living is the main objective and learning is one of the results. We can definitely better those results by considering what we learn consciously. I would rather experience a mistake while striving than avoid striving to make sure I had learned enough to increase the chances of success but that is just me.

I see so many people (even myself when I look closely enough) weighing risk too heavily and in analysis paralysis which hinders action and progress. Obviously there are exceptions when the risks are higher (like in your electrician example!) but it would come down to balance if we are doing it optimally.

Love these! Kinda in the spirit of my Zeke Thoughs posts!

Greetings @zekepickleman ,

Thank you for dropping by and giving the Principle a hearing.

Yes...we really do both in life... ^__^

In my studies...sometimes I find them a bit of a slog and yet when exam time/practical application comes..I am grateful for the time well spent...thus the thought of the reverse...learn and live...bringing meaning/definition to the experience that I may not have had otherwise.

I would venture to say in your case...you enjoy your beer much more than the average lad as you have a far greater knowledge base of the subject. For Bleujay...simply learning about Growlers...brought smiles (living).

As you say we can analyse ourselves right out of anything...so we have to make the call....live and learn or learn and live... ^__^

Kind Regards, Bleujay

Had a look at your 'Thoughts'..interesting...Yes...Bleujay is for what assists in giving persons a moment of pause to have a think about something that perhaps they have not given any thought to before....which is what you have there...Lovely!
