Curiosity is the key to being a life-long learner, and if you want to keep growing and developing, you must keep on learning. Curious people possess a thirst for knowledge. They continually ask why? People who remain curious don’t need to be encouraged to ask questions or explore. They just do it — all the time. And they keep doing it. This is how they learn and grow so quickly.
Curiosity helps a person to think and expand possibilities beyond the ordinary. Asking why fires the imagination. It leads to discovery. It opens up options. All meaningful and lasting change starts first in your imagination and works its way out.
