Experience

Experience is overrated. Too much of it can get in the way. You can think you know it all or you can confuse years on the job with experience.

A client of mine mentioned a 25-year employee of his as not having enough experience. I asked how could that be? His response was, "He's had five years of experience five times over. He never grew or learned after his fifth year here."
