WHAT WILL THIS BOOK HELP YOU ACCOMPLISH?

In order to fully unleash the leadership and innovation that resides within each of us, and within our workforce, we need to know that:

Curiosity is integral to all we do in life, especially if we do it well.

From innovation, to creativity, to motivation,
to leadership, to leading a meaningful life, curiosity is a
critical difference-maker, that distinguishes between
living life and merely existing.

Somewhere along that path of life, our curiosity can begin to wane, even falling into a rut.

Some say it is due to the aging process itself (it isn’t).
Some say our ability to learn begins to wane naturally as
we age (it doesn’t). So, what is it that inhibits our
curiosity, and how do we get it back?

Curiosity is important in all aspects of our lives because it opens us up to our desire to experience things. As we become more curious, we find things that make us happy, energize us, and create new opportunities and experiеnces at home and at work.

By learning what things inhibit our natural levels of curiosity, we can learn ways to become open to experiencing opportunities.

Benefit from it. Enjoy a more fulfilling life!

CRACKING THE CURIOSITY CODE

The Key to Unlocking Human Potential
Curiosity is one of the most analyzed, discussed, and written about topics in
the study of human behavior. We have learned that it is innate from birth, as illustrated by the phrase, childlike curiosity. We have learned that it is essential to the survival of the entire animal kingdom. We have learned that the most successful leaders and entrepreneurs attribute their success to sustaining their childlike curiosity, while many people’s sense of curiosity tends to wane or deteriorate as they age. For the longest time, we attributed that diminished state of curiosity to the aging process itself. But studies have shown that is not the case.

Why do we lose our childlike curiosity? What are the causes; and what are the consequences? Most importantly, how do we get it back?

That is the essence of this book.
