Over the past centuries, it has been proved that gaining
knowledge
is one of the most important factors in achieving goals and ambitions. Many people believe that all of our learnings can be found in books, while others think that books are not containing a real-life
experience
. In my opinion,
however
, none of them, books or
experience
, is highly more useful than the other one, what we learn from
experience
plays a main role in our self-development.
First
of all, it has been said that “
experience
is the best teacher”
from
this
we can understand how important
experience
can be in a person’s life. In fact,
experience
is a
teacher while books are theoretical. There are many real -world situations in which we need other people’s realistic
experience
rather than
of books. Another point to consider is that many experienced people do not have the opportunity to write books about their lives, so the only way to benefit from their
experience
is listening to their advice.
Additionally
, in practice, a well-educated person has less performance than a person with long
experience
in the same career, because what individuals gain with spending time in a work place is more valuable than spending time at universities without any visual
experience
.
Moreover
, during life
we read a lot of
text-booksaccording to or characteristic of a casebook or textbook; typical
and some books for pleasure too, but remembering their contents is not as easy as it seems, whereas
experience
is more memorable because of its tangibility.
On the other hand
, reading books and references open our eyes to a new horizon. Reading books not only informs us about the latest science and
also
increases our
knowledge
related to ancient history.
Furthermore
, most of the
knowledge
we learn from books are the results of an author ‘s researches, which are reliable and classified.
For instance
, when we set a goal, books are tremendous resources which give us information to reach our goals as quickly as possible in proven ways. In fact, the more
knowledge
we have, the clear goal we can see. Fortunately, modern technology makes access to different types of books and references
such
as E-books and
in various possible subjects more than ever.
Therefore
, we can learn a lot from books without any limitations, by reading them in our spare time.
In conclusion,
although
people learn plenty of
knowledge
from books and use them effectively during their lifetime,
knowledge
from
experience
is more constant and tangible. I,
therefore
, believe that the
knowledge
from
experience
is more significant that those from books.
