Nosey vs. Curious

There is a difference between being nosey and being curious. One leads to the land of “none of your business” and the other lights a path to new learning.

Nosey is putting your attention where it’s not welcome; curious has an open door policy.

Curious leads you to wondering about options that will move you forward; nosey just takes you back to the landfill for another pile of dirt.

Curiosity will solve more dilemmas than nosey will ever sniff.

Curiosity leads to creativity; nosey just confirms what you already believe.

You may have heard that curiosity killed the cat. What they neglect to mention is that cats have nine lives. Nosey kills itself in the grindstone.

Final thought: Curiosity will take you to the land of milk and honey. But here's what nosey lacks: No GPS. So you end up on a dead end trail named "none of your beeswax."

All the best,

John
