Are you curious?

Seth Godin, author of The Dip and other great business books, says schools squash curiosity…
I think that’s often true. One of the greatest gifts we can give our students and our own children is a desire to learn, to be curious, to ask questions and find truth.
I love this.

From seth godin’s blog, an observation: why aren’t there such things a digital coaches?
“Here’s what I haven’t found: people who charge $100 an hour to hear what you do and how you do it and then show you how to do it better. People who organize data and put it in the right place. People who overhaul the way small groups use technology so they can use it dramatically better. People who use copilot to take over a PC and actually rearrange it so that it works better.”
