JUST ASK QUESTIONS. IT WILL TAKE YOU FAR. BY RYAN OWENDOFF

I can promise you that if you get your wisdom teeth removed, it does not make you less wise. No one likes surgery and looking less wise afterwards. Anyone can be wise and creative though. So many people are under the impression that to be creative, you must create a tangible item or product and become a millionaire business entrepreneur. This isn’t true. Creativity can be simple. Just ask yourself: How can I do better? How can I be the best? To endeavor into your creativity, you must follow the three A’s: ability, availability, and amiability. The three A’s can even be applied to my immediate life, especially in my research lab. As a researcher, we constantly ask ourselves how can we make this certain procedure more efficient? How can we solve this issue? How can we solve that? Asking questions is the framework to problem solving. Like any entrepreneur, we must ask questions, but purposeful questions, not just to elucidate an answer you may subconsciously know. To become a successful entrepreneur, you must find that perfect balance between creativity and helping others, which inevitably builds trust.
