The real expert is not really an expert at all

Chinese New Year is a time to catch up with friends and relatives.

We have become a nation of "experts". Everyone has an opinion about something - experts on movies who have never made one; experts on politics who have never run for office; even experts on war who have never been under fire. They assume they can predict how successful you will be.

Society is constantly analyzing and evaluating us and drawing conclusions about what we can do without really knowing the intangibles about us.

The only true expert on us is - us.

The real expert is not really an expert at all, but a support system - like a coach or mentor. They are there to facilitate your progress and thinking. They never make judgments of us.
