I haven't read that book. Curiosity is probably the secret of staying young. I wish more people realized that. Thanks for stopping by Rakesh. I haven’t read that book.

It reminds of something i read a little while back (i dont exactly remember the name of the book, but i guess it was by John Maxwell), where the author mentions the curiosity indicates whether the person is growing or not. While most people stop growing physically when they are in 20s, the sad part is they also stop growing mentally around the same age and that is when you see people stop asking questions Rakesh Very interesting article.

We are worried more about our public image as we age, since it affects our personal and professional lives. I wish there could be a study on the number of questions that get lost between the brain and the mouth, that would show us whether it us our curiosity that is killed or our lack of trepidation.
