Oh We Humans

            Here's some expressions that seem to apply to many of us.

            For lack of knowing what to do, we do what we know.

            I respect all my seniors, some more than others.

            We usually exhaust all other possibilities before doing the best thing.

            Stupidity is repeating the same mistakes hoping for a different outcome.

            If all else fails, read the directions.

            There is no school for Presidents.

            Here's some of my own.

            There are few born leaders; most of us have to be taught or try figure it out.

            There is a big difference between being chewed out, and insulted. Most of us appreciate being professionally and critically reviewed. Most of us will never forgive those that insult us.

            We have a tendency to put more eggs in one basket as the preferred solution.

            Why do we try solve yesterday's problems when we were growing up, today?

            Our ancestors were pretty smart, too.

            While the technology is better today, we humans are still about the same as even thousands of years ago.

            Melting down old coins for value usually negates all the artistic and sentimental value.

            There is no school for parents.

            There's usually two good ways to get ahead. One is to make your boss happy; two is to get the mission accomplished.

            There's things you learn in school, and there's things you learn out of school. In that regards, sports of any kind can be another way to both teach, and to learn.

             It's more important to start a project, than to finish a project. This especially applies to Family genealogy.

             Why do we humans tend to go for a perfect plan later, rather than a good plan now?
            I am confident many others have their own guiding expressions, too.
