Why inquiry-based learning is so important. What you don't know and don't know you don't know are where the biggest risks and opportunities in life. We should teach this in school. What's in the books of what we know is just a sliver of knowledge. #deeperlearning #pblchat
You don’t know what you don’t know

My toddler was hospitalized for 2 weeks and almost died when he got covid. Now, when people refuse to mask around him, I ask them to please say to him “I don’t care if you die”. I repeatedly ask them, and funny enough, no one is willing to say it.

Criticizing is fast and easy. Creating is slow and difficult. The two hours you spent on a book or movie usually took two years to produce. Anyone can tear down someone else's work. The true test of insight is whether you can help them improve it or build something of your own.

Self-acceptance isn't giving up on self-improvement. It's deciding to stop beating yourself up for being human—and keep working to become a better human. Getting comfortable in your own skin doesn't stifle growth. When you can laugh at your faults, it's easier to overcome them.
