Opening a terminal, one is usually in one's home directory (folder for
Win folks), /home/<USER> and the default behavior is to show that
directory on the CLI prompt thus:
<USER>@<MACHINE>:~$
where the ~ indicates <USER>'s home directory.
In order to 'navigate' you only need to change directories with the
command, <cd>, which means (in case you didn't notice) 'change
directory.'  Therefore, if  one changes to, say, /usr/share by issuing
the command, <cd /usr/share> then the command line shows:
<USER>@<MACHINE>:/usr/share$
That's navigation.
