Being curious is not enough
We all are born with the hunger to know
Does that mean we need to consume everything that generates curiosity?
I don’t think so
But the best minds in the world are working hard to make you curious and click
Imagine there is a Job-Description designed for a person whose only job is to make you curious enough to click
As humans, we are always keen to know what happens next
That clickbait on Youtube generates curiosity which leads to an endless binge-watching loop
Digital platforms convert your curiosity into a distraction
Every brand seeks your unwavering attention
Every brand seeks to distract us
And we happen to be more vulnerable to digital distractions
We happily remain distracted for hours altogether
The digital world gives you two choices
To create a distraction or get distracted
Choose wisely
Is there a third choice?
Maybe, but then you should harness your own curiosity and reap the benefits instead of giving it to others
Put your curiosity to your own use, explore what you truly love, explore what you genuinely want to learn 🙂
