Have you ever thought about what it takes to become a scientist? Does your mind immediately go to school and become bogged down with torturous thoughts of math and boring old pictures of old people doing something that looks cool but it's old? Well what if I told you that being a scientist is actually what you are doing right now as you are reading this blog?
Check this out.... from birth we are natural scientist, born with an incredible ability to observe our new world and adapt to the environment. We naturally progress through the scientific method when we even decide to eat our first meal. As toddlers we constantly used our senses to figure out the world by rattling a bottle and banging it on the table right before we conducted the ol' taste test. We cautiously investigated steps and bugs alike. We tested out cabinet doors and trash lids, everything we touched served as a new discovery and we began to log these experiences, just like scientist. Being a scientist isnt all that hard...you just have to give in to that curious nature we were born with!
So live a little bit and rediscover the passion of exploration and creativity and sooner or later you will find that you are an everyday Scientist!
