Stay Curious


Children ask why a hundred times a day. Somewhere in adulthood most of us learn to stop asking, and we call it maturity.

Curiosity is one of the most useful habits you can keep. It makes you a better listener, a faster learner, and a more interesting friend.

Look up the next time you walk through your own city. There are details in the buildings, the light and the people that you have passed a thousand times without seeing.

Curious people do not need to know everything. They are comfortable saying I do not know yet, and then going to find out.

Ask one more question in your next conversation. Read one article outside your field. Take the unfamiliar route home.

Each small act of attention widens the world a little. And a wider world holds more opportunity than a narrow one.

Stay curious about people, about ideas and about what is coming next. The skyline is always changing for those who keep looking up.

What have you stopped wondering about that deserves another look?
