“Why?” is a word that can pack an energetic punch in the direction of heretical. Yet, it is one of the most important words to befriend. Getting underneath the surface of reason, intent, idea, method, purpose, and desire matters. Feeling comfortable clarifying before acting is a great interrupter to auto-behavior and perpetuating exactly that which you wish to innovate out of.

Being benevolently agreeable most often derives from installed operating norms that keep you in your place in the labyrinth of any given system. It holds you back from asserting your truth, intelligence, and true nature. Wonder and curiosity are what fuel creativity – everywhere and always. Allow your curiosity to become your magic wand. Do not be afraid of it nor cower to the unspoken rules where curiosity isn’t permitted or seems disrespectful.

Curiosity is a pathway to interactivity, and interactivity is the bridge to healthy understanding, ideating, and evolving cultures.
