Great read. Points 2 and 3 really stuck out to me. I have an odd passion for collecting resources and find myself curious to various degrees on a wide range of topics. This can get overwhelming sometimes to where the forest gets lost for the trees. There is only so much we can dedicate in a single lifetime.

Research is a task that springs from natural born curiosity, it is not a chore in order to complete an intellectual quota. Reminding ourselves of this truism helps to recalibrate our intention towards it's proper focus and avoid forsaking the entire endeavor due to burnout or choice paralysis. It is a divine command that correlates with the our innate desire to know the world, and by extension, its Creator.

The stack of books on your desk should invoke excitement for what's in store for your curiosity. If not, you're doing it wrong.
