Mindset Monday: Curiosity Mindset
Ever notice how some people ask “Why?” and others just accept the world the way it is? Having a Curiosity Mindset means always asking insightful questions and not taking things at face value. You could argue that curiosity is responsible for all scientific and technological breakthroughs because it’s rooted in the desire to seek the truth and explore the unknown.

This Mindset Monday Issue is based on my upcoming podcast, Moonshots & Mindsets. I'm offering a few special rewards to early supporters of the show.

From me:
“As I’ve studied the most successful entrepreneurs and companies, from Amazon to Google and Uber to SpaceX, their success is largely due to their relentless use of experimentation to define their products and services.” [Tweet]
From the world:
Dr. Sian Proctor on going down the rabbit hole of curiosity… [Tweet]
Data-Driven Optimism:
According to GlobalData’s Patent Analytics, 1.1 million patents were granted globally in Q1 2022, up 8% from Q1 2021. [Tweet]

A thought exercise for the week:
Think of one of your most strongly-held beliefs. Now ask yourself: “What would it look like if I were wrong?”
Try to approach this exercise objectively, and encourage yourself to dig into a different perspective. Do some research on the opposing side, and you might be surprised with what you find.
Until next week,
Peter Diamandis, M.D.Founder, Author & Data-Driven Optimist
