 β€œHe who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened.”
― Lao Tzu

 

Knowing the chances is knowing others. Knowing oneself allows a person to use that information to the best personal advantage.

 

Can't understand why this is an either/or discussion. I would advise youngsters to get all the objective information they can about any prospective professional endeavor, and using self-awareness, apply it to their personal situation.

 

I suppose there can be such a thing as too much information. But I would hesitate to advise a youngster to ignore data...unless I thought he was incapable of understanding it.......or had very little self-awareness.

 

Edit: in which case he would be neither wise nor enlightened
