            After watching the TED talk I agree with Adam Savage, that simple ideas due lead to

scientific discoveries. All those from history and Philosophers are evidence of what exploration of a

simple thought or question can lead to. I believe that is exactly the drive of science and experiments

the need to satisfy curiosity, this can lead to something even greater which is usually unintentional in

certain circumstances. It is truly fascinating what you can do if you put your mind to something.
           
           However it also made me reflect on my own curiosity, and access it. I believe I am very

curious however I can lack the drive to explore the unknowing further. I get discouraged by the

difficulty of what it takes to get the answer or the depths that can be reached once it is answered.

Although watching this ted talk has made me see that’s part of the risk and the more I ask questions

better at ease my mind will be because my questions will finally be answered. It also shows

creativity and the character it took that not everyone possess.
