It's said curiosity is the mother of discovery. A well placed question can shift perspective irreversibly and a seemingly illogical curious thought can change how we think about an entire field of knowledge. Albert Einstein is said to have developed his ground breaking theories regarding the way we view space and time by asking the seemingly mad question, "what would happen if I rode a beam of light?" Isaac Newton is thought to have revealed gravity by asking why an apple fell to the ground but not the moon. Questions are powerful yet non-challenging tools which when used correctly can unlock seemingly stuck situations and lead to positive change.
