I’ve made way too many screw ups to have lived before. This has to be my first go-round. Either that, or I learned absolutely nothing the time(s) before.

I would agree with you. I've had great experience in my life screwing up. Never learned. Experience can be hard come by.

The British Royal Navy defines experience as ''not making the same mistake twice''.
