I always enjoy reading these bite-size bits of wisdom, but in the end I think that most lessons are only learned the hard way. Still, many of the ideas and stories here are truly inspirational.

For the most people aren't able to absorb the message until the have made the mistakes that lead to the insight.

Some of these are harrowing, like the guy who hit a kid with his car.

I try to read them and think about where in my life they apply and then internalize them. The hard part is to avoid reading advice and thinking "Hm, that's a great thought" and then never thinking of it again or never applying it in your life.
