Today, we answer a question many people have asked, how can I develop my curiousity?

Curiousity is the fuel that drives life.

Psychologists call curiousity a trait cluster. In other words, it is a core aspect to other attributes, and determines growth and development.

1.Be willing to become a beginner

Take the posture of a learner. Ask questions and begin with "why". The only bad question is the one you didn't ask.

We have seen talented people—people much smarter than us—fail as leaders. They talked a good talk, but they were not good at asking questions.

2.Read widely and outside your specialty

When you discover an interesting thread, follow it. Consume content that is not inside your comfort zone. Explore new topics and force yourself to be stretched.

3.Get off your screen and into the real world

As good as Google is, it cannot compare to meeting a real person.

There is so much to be gained from sitting across the table with an older and wiser person.

Perhaps the most impactful time of our lives is around the dining room table.
