Discover knowledge. Knowledge is an accumulation of facts acquired through experience or education. Science fiction writer, Frank Herbert, of the Dune series professes, "The beginning of knowledge is the discovery of something we do not understand." Now I know that not everyone holds the same level of enthusiasm for knowledge that I do. However, with today's information explosion and easy access to resources there is no reason not to expand your knowledge base. Discovering new information can be both fascinating and fun. As an elementary school teacher I always loved to hear these words, "Did you know?" Children are natural discoverers of knowledge. They are like sponges when it comes to learning. Take advantage of discovering new things in many areas of your life. Your added knowledge will allow you to be more informed and to speak with more authority about things you know.
Challenge: In your Discovery Journal brainstorm a list of areas you would like to know more about. Check out You Tube for videos that go along with one of the subjects you picked. Jot down three new learnings.
