The expert at anything was once a beginner.
Every expert was once a beginner.
If your mind is empty, it is ready for anything. In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities; in the expert's mind there are few.
In Japan we have the phrase, "Shoshin," which means "beginner's mind." Our "original mind" includes everything within itself. It is always rich and sufficient within itself. This does not mean a closed mind, but actually an empty mind and a ready mind. If your mind is empty, it is always ready for anything. It is open to everything. In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities; in the expert's mind there are few.
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities; in the expert's mind there are few.... In the beginner's mind there is no thought, 'I have attained something.' All self-centered thoughts limit our vast mind. When we have no thought of achievement, no thought of self, we are true beginners. We can really learn something.
A well-designed and humane interface does not have to be split into beginner and expert subsystems.
The practice of Zen mind is beginner's mind. The innocence of the first inquiry—what am I?—is needed throughout Zen practice. The mind of the beginner is empty, free of the habits of the expert, ready to accept, to doubt, and open to all the possibilities. It is the kind of mind which can see things as they are, which step by step and in a flash can realize the original nature of everything.

I'm a big expert in boxing, but in politics I'm a beginner, so I try to use other people's experience. I read books; I'm not afraid to ask for advice.
An expert is a person who has few new ideas; a beginner is a person with many.
In the mind of the beginner, there are many possibilities. In the mind of the expert there are few.
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities, in the expert's mind there are few.
I said that an expert was a fella who was afraid to learn anything new because then he wouldn't be an expert anymore.
The more advanced the teacher, the better for you. The fifth degree black belt is so expert that they will understand that you're a beginner and throw you perfectly so that no harm will befall you.
When one practices discipline and moves from the beginner's territory to immovable wisdom, one makes a return and falls back to the level of the beginner.
You can only get a beginner's mind once.
