Don’t Put Your Lead to Sleep!

Learning the theory behind a science or a discipline can be very useful but theory alone cannot replace experience in a practical endeavor such as business.

Steadily learning new things by reading or attending classes can broaden your capacity to work more effectively and efficiently. Theory gives you the framework for how things ought to go in an ideal situation, but the world is anything but ideal. As it’s been said, “in theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they’re not!” While theory may guide you, only practical experience will give you the skills to think on your feet in critical moments.
