As the saying goes, the point on a pencil is the inspiration and the other end with the eraser is the experience. A pencil without an eraser is next to useless, as I have found out. Yes, I know that, instead of using pencils, we all type on computers these days, but the principle still holds: Experience tempers our creative endeavors with realistic expectations. Whether we are considering engineering solutions to outstanding problems or are considering more broadly how to live our lives, real-life experiences guide our every move.

没有什么比《真实体验：II》更好的了


俗话说，铅笔的一端是灵感，橡皮的另一端是经验。我发现，没有橡皮擦的铅笔几乎毫无用处。是的，我知道，如今我们不再使用铅笔，而是在电脑上打字，但原则仍然成立：经验会根据现实的期望来调整我们的创造性努力。无论我们是在考虑针对突出问题的工程解决方案，还是在更广泛地考虑如何生活，现实生活的经验都会指导我们的一举一动。
