Badke tells us that we have to take charge when it comes to writing a research paper and finding research for your paper. However, we should not rush. Badke tells that research is not within us, but out there for us to find. I found this chapter interesting because I tend to rush my research. I found it interesting that Google and other search engines are academically weak, while libraries are not because they know what kind of research we need for our specific topic. Badke also makes it sound like finding research is like a battle that we have to win all the time. If I see it like this, then I can find my research much easier because I do not know when to quit.
