A person’s MANY years of experience in a particular subject does not always mean he SURE is better than everyone else who has less number of years.
Although one generally knows MORE when then learn and study a particular subject for a long period, it (unfortunately) may not be the case for everyone.
There are some who somehow feel that they’re so experienced in something that they stop being open to others’ feedback. However constructive.
They stick to what they ‘used to’ know and hence they unconsciously … stop learning. Years go by but there simply are no improvements in their knowledge nor self.
In order to continually learn and improve one’s self (in whatever aspects in life), one needs to be humble and have a teachable mind. Always ready to introspect and evaluate ourselves.
Even if it means being (uncomfortably) corrected by others.
