It can often be easier to change direction in the light of new knowledge and the wisdom of others, than to overcome the inertia of inaction and start out in the right direction once you have learnt "everything."

Unless you subscribe to the view that knowledge as what you learn from your own mistakes and wisdom as what you learn from other people's mistakes.
