How

01

Pick a theme for the week: Choose one narrow topic you’re curious about (e.g., urban trees, negotiation tips).

02

Set a 5–7-minute timer: do exactly one thing - read a short piece, watch one clip, or look up a single term. Stop when the timer ends.

03

Leave a note: write one sentence on what you learned and save one link for tomorrow.

Easy Start

Right now, set a 6-minute timer and look up one unfamiliar word or idea you’ve heard lately.

Why It Matters

Small, steady curiosity widens your map of the world. Tiny learnings compound - showing up in how you think, ask questions, and solve problems.

Questions and Thoughts

  1. “Feels random.” → Use a weekly theme so it’s focused.
  2. “I’ll end up scrolling.” → Non-negotiable timer; one source per session.
  3. “No time.” → Piggyback on an existing moment (tea break/commute).
  4. “I’ll forget.” → Keep a running “curiosity list” in Notes to pick from.

Care Notes

Choose credible, calm sources; avoid hate or triggering pieces. Keep it light on heavy days. If you need depth, stack multiple 5-minute sessions on the same subtopic rather than stretching one long session.
