What I've come to know is that in life, it's not always the questions we ask, but rather our ability to hear the answers that truly enriches our understanding. Never, never stop learning.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I have always been much better at asking questions than knowing what the answers were.
Learning is the new skill. Imagination, creation and asking new questions are at its core.
I believe everything learned in college is an answer to a question that someone has posed. Questions get posed differently and the answers that come back transport us to places we never knew existed.
We don't know all the answers. If we knew all the answers we'd be bored, wouldn't we? We keep looking, searching, trying to get more knowledge.
Sometimes attaining the deepest familiarity with a question is our best substitute for actually having the answer.
You have to learn to ask questions in a way that will elicit more nuanced answers, rather than the answers you would like to get.
Empty heads, cognitive science has taught us, learn nothing. The powerful cultural and personal flexibility of our species is owed at least in part to our starting off so well-informed; we are good learners because we know what to pay attention to and what questions are the right ones to ask.
There are so many things that pop up. If you are paying attention, you can learn every second of the day. Life is my guru.
We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself.
When you stop learning, stop listening, stop looking and asking questions, always new questions, then it is time to die.
