Curiosity is a beautiful but torturous thing. Some people believe that curiosity is our ultimate weapon to break through our destiny, and the driving force behind all human behavior. If we are compared to a machine, to arouse our curiosity is to power us on. The power enables us to operate and to realize our potential, and find meanings in life.
On the other hand, we must also be aware that restraining curiosity is a homework we have to do throughout our lives. Have you realized that, since the era of mobile phones and the Internet, our attention has never been more divided under the stimulation of massive information? Some people have various interests and hobbies. They know a little of everything, but none of their interests lead them to develop skills that reach a professional level. Therefore, excessive curiosity might not necessarily be a good thing, because it makes it difficult for us to focus on one thing.
In the age of information explosion, curiosity exists as a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it leads us to explore and open the door to a new world. On the other hand, it challenges our ability to focus, making it difficult for us to have an in-depth understanding in a particular field.
