For years I have noticed that one common characteristic that successful people have is curiosity. Why is curiosity important Because it gives you a fresh perspective(视角)and fresh ideas. Curious people can see things that many other people can’t. So how can you develop curiosity Here are some tips that you can follow:
Expect things to be fun.
Instead of expecting things to be boring, expect them to be fun. This small change in your thinking can make a big difference. Once you do it, it will be much easier for you to find the fun side of almost anything. And also, more doors of chance will be open for you.
Always have questions in your mind.
Whenever you deal with a topic, have questions in your mind. Find the answers and ask new questions. Questions keep your mind engaged (忙于). They can change your learning process from being boring to a treasure hunt.
Take on a new challenge.
By taking on a new challenge, you will want to prove to yourself (and perhaps to others) that you can make it. One good way to do that is to create a competition with your friends to find out who can do something faster or better.
Connect new things with what you’ve already known.
Things will be more exciting if you can connect what you’re learning with what you’ve already known. Why Because that improves your understanding of the world and allows you to see new things that you haven’t noticed before.
Add variety(多样性) to your life.
Find new possibilities by stepping into new topics. Read books in new fields. Meet people from all walks of life. No more experience is enough.
All the advice above can be summarised(概括) in just one phrase: make things fun.
