Description
Stephanas' talk highlights the lack of curiosity in Singapore which can potentially harm our society and stunt the potential Singapore has to grow. Living in a world that is more technologically advanced, rapidly modernising and yet globally more tumultuous, the urgency for Singaporeans to possess a sense of inquisitiveness is much greater. He proposes that in order foster one's spirit of curiousity, 3 simple steps can be taken: namely, 1) let your mind wander from time to time, 2) to never feel satisfied with the systems put into place and 3) be unique in standing out from the crowd in terms of your personal viewpoint, rightfully.Stephanas is currently a student studying in St Andrew’s Junior College.He likes to ask questions and wonders how important being curious is in his Singaporean society. His curiosity into curiosity stems from his childhood in the United Kingdom that has led to his current dream of pursuing Science as a career to understand the new frontiers in the ever expanding field of Science. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
