Quotes about experience

It means the part of you that *lives* an experience and the part of you that *remembers* it later have completely different, and often conflicting, opinions on what was actually enjoyable or meaningful.

Quotes about experience

The experiencing self does not remember well, and the remembering self does not know how you felt in the moment - Daniel Kahneman
It means we have two different "selves" inside us: one that lives through an experience moment-by-moment, and another that later tells the story of that experience. And they often disagree completely.

Children remember how we made them feel long after they forget what we said - Marshall B. Rosenberg
The core message is simple but profound: the emotional climate you create for a child is infinitely more important and memorable than any specific lesson or instruction you give them.
