Summary
Dr. Killeen shares the story of physicist Isidor Rabi, whose mother asked him one simple question each day: did you ask a good question today? That small habit helped shape a mindset rooted in curiosity, one that ultimately led to a Nobel Prize and groundbreaking contributions to science. The same principle applies in dentistry. Growth does not come from always having the right answers, but from consistently asking better questions. Whether it is improving clinical skills, refining systems, or understanding patients more deeply, curiosity keeps you learning and moving forward. Slow down and ask one more question than you normally would. Because progress often begins not with what you know, but with what you are willing to explore.
