Staying curious and having a sense of purpose will give you an edge 90% of people don’t have in adulthood.

That's a little 'thanks I'm cured' ...

I agree and disagree. If they were telling you "just stay curious to get ahead" then I would agree, but in the specific context it came off, to me, more along the lines of "this is a goal you can work towards. Find ways to make yourself curious and find a sense of purpose."

You'll still have to find what ways you can use to work on yourself, but that's where therapy and introspection come in, not internet strangers
