Quote of the Week

Image Source:  Wikipedia
I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.
- Confucious

We are distracted and things heard are easily forgotten.  Things seen are filed away like snapshots.  Things done are learned, understood and remembered.

  2. Linda- There really is a lot of truth to it, and different people function differently when faced with different learning styles. I am more of a doer.

    Meleah- It is, isn't it! It's so easy to forget what we've heard, but once we do something a few times it tends to stick with us better.

  3. So very true. All of my memories are visual. Like little videos that play back in my head.
