Break something.
Everybody’s always talking about making things, inventing things, discovering things... but what about breaking things? Destroying things? Taking things apart? There’s something to be said for deconstruction — it’s a learning tool too. I used to take apart cassette players and lamps to see all the parts (could never put them back together, though, so I’d turn them into other things). I used to take apart my bicycles, down to the last ball bearing in the crankset (and I was quite expert at putting my beloved bikes back together). Even “Demo Man” here wouldn’t exist if a bunch of other things hadn’t been broken apart and reassembled. Try it.
