Curiosity - the one skill you need for data analysis
Developing an almost feline agility of the mind to ask questions can help fill in the gaps.

IF you have a cat, you already know its famous habits: laziness (all those cat naps!) and legendary curiosity. As the day rolls by, cats enjoy nothing better than sleeping. However, anything new or unfamiliar quickly ignites their spirit of inquiry.
Curiosity may indeed have killed some cats by tempting them into danger. But the impulse to explore also leads them to find new homes, new hunting grounds and new mates. Their playfulness gives them practice and sharpens reactions for when they really need them.
In our human world of work, we often seem to be more or less cat-napping through the day. Business as usual sounds so comfortable. We are simply not curious enough. As a result, although we may think we are avoiding danger, we are also missing new opportunities. Nor will our skills be sharp enough when they are needed.
