Why Question: Why don’t we ask more questions? Does what we know, or what we think we know, hurt us?

Are you a member of People Pleasers Anonymous?

What we can learn from kids and their curiosity.

What happens when our desire to be right is often stronger than our right to be informed?

The world is not black or white. The good stuff is in the gray. 

1. Get to the root of the truth

• Check your sources: In today’s world, we have to confirm whether what you see with your own eyes is true.

2. Step outside of your echo chamber

• There is value in getting out of your friend circles and not just engaging with our fans, friends, and connections.

Pour the glass moment:

3. Engage with conflicting viewpoints

• Comfort is addicting and conflict is exhausting, but we learn so much more when we step outside our comfort zone.

Three ways to “play in the gray” and why it’s important to do just that. 

1. Ask more questions that start with the word “Why.”
2. Keep an open mind. 
3. Never stop learning or engaging. Keep digging.

Homework for the week: Meet someone new and do something new.
