Samuel Johnson said,
Curiosity is one of the permanent and certain characteristics of a vigorous mind.”
There a studies that say you should do puzzles to keep your mind sharp, while other studies say wine is the answer. Puzzles and wine might help, but I happen to believe that Dr. Johnson was on to something when her targeted curiosity.
What are you curious about?
How are you following your curiosity to new adventures and achievements?
Imagine what you could achieve if you followed your curiosity!
I’m curious about the transformation of organizations at the employee level… employee engagement. That is why I frequent this blog 🙂
One story that fascinates me is that of Michael Abrashoff, who at age 36 (my age), took command of a naval vessel and transformed it from “worst in fleet” to the very best. (http://www.ftdi.com/convention/abrashoff.htm) I’m curious to know what is was like to be a part of that crew. What was the impact on the individual that made him/her change the level of engagement in the organization?
Was it a fluke? A lot of rhetoric to sell some books? Or is it real and can it be scaled up, regardless of the size of your organization?
