There is so much that we don\u2019t know. There is the stuff that we should know but somehow missed out on. Maybe we were out sick that day. Or maybe we weren\u2019t paying attention when it was being taught. Or maybe we just got behind and didn\u2019t get through the entire curriculum that year and everyone in the class missed out on that particular detail.<\/p>\n
There is the stuff that we\u2019d like to know but don\u2019t even have the slightest clue how to begin finding out about. Like, how to throw pizzas to make the crust thin and crunchy without putting your hand right through them.<\/p>\n
Then there is the stuff that is more work than we want to invest right now. If we ever needed to know it for some project we were doing we would knuckle down and learn it but we just don\u2019t see that happening any time soon, if ever. An example of this might be how to arc weld.<\/p>\n
Then there is the stuff that you used to know but you didn\u2019t use it so you forgot it. You could probably relearn it but after the experience of forgetting it because you didn\u2019t use it you think you\u2019d probably just forget how to do it again so why bother?<\/p>\n
Then there is the stuff that you don\u2019t even know that you don\u2019t know. That is particularly bothersome. You can\u2019t remedy that situation unless you learn what it is you don\u2019t know. This is the most frustrating type of ignorance. You can only check the things you do know and look for mysterious gaps.<\/p>\n
Some people revel in their ignorance. They must figure that if they\u2019ve gotten along this long without knowing whatever it is, they won\u2019t miss it. I\u2019m just the opposite. I want to learn all I can about everything I can. I often like to learn them on my own from books. There is something to be said for having an expert available to answer your questions though.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve prioritized the things that I know I don\u2019t know but want to learn. I\u2019ve found video instruction to be helpful in many instances. I am particularly fond of break out sessions from conventions. The instructor has already limited the scope for you. You Tube is a great way to watch these inexpensively.<\/p>\n
For someone like me that likes to learn a lot of diverse topics, the internet is a great source of information. You do have to be careful to verify your facts though. Just because you saw it on the internet doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s true you know. Of course you did. My readers are some of the smartest people in the world.<\/p>\n
Sweet dreams, don\u2019t forget to tell the ones you love that you love them, and most important of all, be kind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
