Genius Hour Blog Post Week 3


This week I tried to delve further into researching my Genius Hour question in more detail. I went online and tried to do some research via Google. As I did my research I tried to keep and open mind and not skip, or scroll past articles that I thought may not have looked very professional, this way I was hoping to get as many different perspectives as possible, and maybe that way I will learn something, or see something from a point of view, or come to a conclusion that I could never have come to on my own.

Some great advice that I came across so far was to get in touch with one's inner child. When trying to find when you are passionate about, you must act like a child, in the sense that you take all the pressure off yourself and just have an open mind to explore anything and everything. The example that I read talked about how children can often times be seen immersed in their curiosity, and this could be seen in the form of them playing outside, picking up rocks, touching insects and so on; nothing was off limits. If we could also let our curiosity flow, then hopefully it will only be a matter of time until we stumble upon something that really 'speaks' to us and we absolutely love!
... I do not want to share too much information right now, because I have to leave something for my finished product: The Genius Hour TED Talk.
