Good people who want to learn all the time will naturally surround themselves with other people who want to learn all the time and that group compounds much faster. Our country will move forward where more people will take risks with their careers. More people taking risks with their careers will result in them creating careers for other people who don't want to take risks. People who keep complaining about work-life balance either have a shitty life or a shitty job. Watching content, again and again, will not improve your life, taking actions will.

3 USEFUL TIPS TO STAY ‘’CURIOUS’’
1.RESEARCH.
The most important thing to do is to go as deep as you can in the subject/topic you are interested in. Some of you now don’t like reading at all, so what you can do is
- Start knowing more about the thing that you are really passionate about. This is the best way to go - you won’t get distracted or lose interest because this is what you want to be or your future to look like.
- If you are someone who want to get the habit of reading, then start by reading newspapers, journals etc.,
Researching more about something can add to your knowledge database. Then, after you develop this habit you will start getting interest in knowing about other things also. You can learn about anything, either by reading books or on the internet where you can get access to anything.
2.EXPERIMENTING THINGS
After reading a lot of literature it’s time to experiment. This is something that we knew as a child, when we tried to put our hands in hot water tub and felt the intensity of hotness! But as we grow, we stop experimenting and start accepting things how they are and we don’t question of why and how they exist. This leads to decrease in curiosity level in us.
By experimenting, you will try to understand the concept in your own way and in a much clearer way and it also remains firm in your mind. So, try taking a dig at everything and you won’t regret about it in the future. Now there are few things which you can’t experiment like Quantum Mechanics, which is really counter-intuitive. For such things you can follow the below tip.
3.DO NOT HESITATE TO ASK ‘’SILLY’’ QUESTIONS
Now, this is something which we all try to avoid and you think that that by asking silly questions, you might become the laughing stock among your friends. But, hold on, what is your ‘’MOTIVE’’ behind this – firstly, you want to know how the thing works or trying to figure out the fundamentals on which a concept is being built.
Secondly, you don’t want that question to remain in your mind and you want that to get clarified.
Thirdly and most important is that, you want that “CURIOSITY” quality get installed in ”YOU”.
So,these were few tips which are quiet basic but hardly anybody follows it.Try to gain as much knowledge;experiment and keeping asking questions!!
