Curiosity

I write in my Best Self Journal every morning. It helps me organize my thinking and map out my day so I am more effective and efficient with my time, but on a deeper level, it allows me to express gratitude and reflect on my day and acknowledge the good and bad. I believe this is a fundamental tool in the learning process as well as the path to Mastery.

 
I’ve noticed lately that under my goals for the day, I have been writing the same three mindset goals: be present, be curious, own the day. I’ve really focused in on being curious throughout my day and it’s let me to some great conversations and really pushed me in my own personal and professional development. I think so much of the world has become disconnected from its surroundings that their curiosity has diminished or they may feel that they don’t have the time to really dive deeper into a topic. This could be true, but what if you were to dedicate just 15 minutes a day to read a new book, or listen to a podcast, or have an interesting conversation? Could those 15 minutes each day add up to one day leading you down a different path? Or, look at this from this angle… what’s the benefit of NOT being curious and seeking other sources of knowledge?

The flip side of this would be that those who are constantly reading articles, combing through social media sites, and watching all kinds of mind-numbing TV shows. This, I wouldn’t consider curiosity, but rather a coping mechanism for them to unplug from the reality of their day to day. My challenge for you, regain your curiosity, make 15 minutes during your day to read, listen, watch something that truly brings you joy and enhances your life. And what’s the worse that can happen? You may end up sparking a new inspiration and finding your true Personal Legend and leading to on a path to Mastery which you would have never dreamed of.
