When I got to the PhD level, I completed my first research courses - such as Research Methods and Qualitative Research. I also read a ton of published (research) papers - papers that provided answers to specific questions as well as papers that provided new knowledge to the field. It gave me a new appreciation for research. I did prepare research papers during my undergraduate and graduate studies (for example, a final research paper to complete my MS in Finance degree), but I did not complete formal training on research during those years. I am quite positive research is my calling. When I was young, I asked a lot of questions (I was inquisitive). I liked to learn new things and understand how things work or function.
