There’s a reason “learned the hard way” and “school of hard knocks” are common sayings.

Because most of us have at least one story about something we wish we hadn’t learned the hard way. From something simple, like thinking you can drive your car for miles after the gas light comes on … to the embarrassing, like forgetting to check for toilet paper stuck to the bottom of your shoe before you leave the bathroom … to the life-threatening, like thinking it’s okay not to buckle your seat belt if you’re riding in a car for just a mile or so.

Of course, it’s not necessarily a big deal to learn some things the hard way.

But why should you learn any lessons in life the hard way if you don’t have to?

After all, you have just one life. You don’t want to spend it making mistakes; learning through trial and error; or going through bad, difficult, or unpleasant experiences.
