We talk a lot about the importance of curiosity in the Eye of Power community. Today, we take a fresh look at the nuances of curiosity through the eyes of the beloved children's books character Curious George, by H.A. Rey. The lovable monkey's adventures and misadventures help children and adults alike better appreciate the need to stay curious but to also balance that curiosity with a cultivated common sense. We don't just take George's stories for our observations and guidance either. We also incorporate importance psychological research to deliver some pointers and recommendations about how to nurture your sense of curiosity.
