Why the sky is blue? Why the cat has a tail? Why do the leaves fall to the ground? This question needs an answer from the question WHY? All of these questions exist because of curiosity. Curiosity means the desire to know about something, about things, people, and all other aspects.
It is also the reason why I am here on read.cash, when someone told me about this site, that he earned cash from here through blogging and reading articles. So, I was curious, and it leads me to search this site and when I found out I was surprised because it was very true. Curiosity will lead us to something to learn and know that will enable us to find new ideas that brings surprises and self improvement.
Curiosity is an incredible power within us that we need to nurture. It is a built-in attitude of every human, all we need to do is to follow and have a sense of discernment. A lot of innovations, products, development, progress in business, a technology that was being made because of it. An astronaut was sent to the moon or on the planet Mars because of curiosity. A child who always asks questions. And you know what, I was getting tired of answering their questions. Like, "Mama, why did the water flow in my eyes when I cry."And I said, it was the water that we drink baby, but I'm not sure with that, I just said it to end the discussion. Children are used to be curious especially toddlers and sometimes it sounds funny. How about the adults? I think we cannot learn if we are not curious enough, we will not improve our knowledge and learn new things.
Curiosity is very useful in our life, it will encourage us to learn and discover new things. We go online, travel, go on a trip, and engage the world and find the update about the world. Curiousness has the power to allow a person to expand whether, in work, career, and makes us willing to find out new adventures and develop a new craft.
Curiosity is harmful also in the other way. Especially nowadays that most young people are using the internet where they can see videos that are not suitable for them and out of curiosity they will try to explore it, which will result in crime and abuse. Curiosity has to put in the right way that is beneficial for oneself. It is harmful in a way out of lust and selfish desires which will lead to self-destruction and misery. It is better to prevent these instances than to have regret with its results.
Characters of a curious person
1.They listen without judgment
They are a good listener and pay attention to the answers of a person and go into details before giving a conclusion. Avoid being in a rush and giving an opinion without particular knowledge of the situation.
2.They ask questions
It is a very helpful attitude to always ask questions. Just like what the teachers said after the discussion," who will ask questions? But when nobody asks, he will just say maybe they understand it or maybe not. To ask questions is to seek a further explanation about the exact details of a certain event.
3.Willing to commit a mistake and to say "No"
Mistakes serve as a teacher and new ideas of learning, learning from experience. Pick up the good one and set aside the bad one. Knowing what is right through committing failures.
4.They are entirely present and engage with the world's current events
It refers to always finding updates about information and news, innovation and discoveries in our time. Furthermore, always stay connected with media platforms and other endeavors of ideas.
There are a lot of good things that are brought about by curiosity. Just always remember, to be in the right perspective of knowing something. Curiosity may lead us to new opportunities and track to follow if we will use it with virtue.
Being a mother I was worried about my son because he has his own cellphone and sometimes I heard him talking unpleasant things.And I think its because he is always engage with internet.He is a curios child, he always ask questions.
Social media is one of the easiest way of learning out of curiosity but it was an effective way of learning.
And as of me, curiosity leads me to earn money and learn to explore new habits, new things, new friends in virtual world and in physical world.
However, let me tell you that curiosity is a desire of knowing something, and then next is you act on it.But if you will not do something about it it will not be useful with you.
"The important thing is not to stop questioning curiosity has its own reason of existing."
