If you want to be a scientist, you think like one. That's how it's done. If you want to e a scientist, observer each day. That's what I say. You must question the way nature works, ask yourself Why, It's worth a try. Hypothesize when you think you know...the why and how, Your are thinking now. Plan and run a scientific test, Experiment! That's time well spent. Record the data. Analyze it but be precise. Yeah, check it twice. Make a conclusion based on the results. Use good logic. It's not a trick. Was your hypothesis supported? The truth in sight. Hey, your are right! Was your hypothesis rejected? A false returned. Congrats, you learned.
