What We Do With What We Know - The #InnovatorsMindset Podcast S1 Ep 40

What do we do with what we know? Considering all the information that is available to us, how are we using the accessibility of content, and what impact does that have on our lives? When we think about how technology has progressed and how we have access to various forms of information, how we use that information and how we utilize technology to build relationships is ultimately what matters. Our true learning is shown through what we choose to create using what we know; it is not necessarily the technology used during the creation that shows learning. Instead, it is processing, discussing, and creating the content we are sharing that shows true learning. There are times when we can get caught up in the "newness" of technology, but when we focus instead on depth, that is when meaningful learning happens while we explore the "newness" within the technology. Instead of considering innovation as doing new things all the time, we can shift our focus to considering innovation as being something new and better.
