Every new experience is set between your best and worst ones.
Unless the new one is the best one.
Expose yourself to the best of experiences so that you know where the others stand.
The more exposed you are in any matter, the more relevant your thoughts are to reality.
In such a pursuit, it's common to slip on snake oil.
So it's a must to be real and aware.
The passionate ones will reveal the snake oil if you aren't ready to do it yourself.
Drink the best Tea.
Drive the best Car.
Consume the distinguished Art.
Expose yourself to things so you know what's worth what.
