Episode Curiosity - Approved Performance Enhancer Cover

Curiosity - Approved Performance Enhancer

Data shows a sharp decline in questions asked, from ~26/hour in preschoolers to fewer than two in middle schoolers. 98% of a day for a kid is spent exercising curiosity compared to 2% of an adults. This is largely why kids develop relationships, physical and mental skills, and learn new things so easily. Are we adults really okay with having our development stagnated? Do we really want to keep trudging through life on half empty motivation - or would you rather start having fun again with the gamified nature of curiosity as the main fuel to being a healthier human being?
