text: Learning from experiences can be a big tool into helping you make a better choice. If someone tells you what they did and what they did was bad, in your mind you will know not to do that and do the right thing. I know what it is like to ask people for advice, when I didn't want to play basketball I asked my Dad for advice, he told me I can do whatever I want to do, but I'm not going to sit around doing nothing. I took that into consideration and I decided to play basketball again, that helped me because I still think I made the right choice. Making that choice helped me because I do not think I would be where I am today fulfilling my goal.
