belajar dari pengalaman sendiri
Dari guru bahasa Inggris, native speaker: To "sit at someone's feet" means to be a student, sitting at the feet of the master. Them refers to LIVES. It's poorly phrased.
Jadi, terjemahannya, IMHO: Belajar dari pengalaman sendiri bisa membuat kita meraih sukses dan kepuasan hidup.

membiarkan hidup mengendalikan kita
Kalau dibaca seluruh kalimatnya, ada kesan 'belajar rendah hati'. Agak berbeda dengan mandiri atau mengandalkan diri sendiri, melainkan kita mengandalkan hidup, yaitu life as a force of its own. Kita 'duduk' di 'kaki kehidupan kita' (kesannya rendah hati sekali kan, seperti duduk di dekat kaki seseorang saja), dan 'membiarkan diri kita diajar oleh mereka (kaki tersebut)'. Jadi kita membiarkan kehidupan yang 'mengajar' kita, bukan kita yang selalu try to be in charge, this time we let Life be in charge of us.
