Our experiences (either things that happened to us or things we have come to hear), shape how we see things. Our constant exposure to a certain view shapes how we view things and it soon becomes our reality

We all are shaped by our experiences in our lives. And the memories, good and bad have permanently altered our outlook towards our lives and future. We are nothing but a mind over matter that is a product of our experiences under specific circumstances in our lives. If our circumstances were any different our experiences would have been very different as well and would result in a different memory that will remain with us forever.

Experience is what causes a person to make new mistakes instead of old ones.
