One question that turned out to work in the desired way: "Where is that book about reading people that I saw here not two weeks ago?" Before long, I had sorted through the piles of books on my bedroom floor and put them in the bookcase.

I can eat new food if I ask myself what it will taste. Apparently I'm Ravenclaw through and through, because curiosity seems to be able to make me do just about anything as long as it seems reasonably safe.

Now, to find questions that will make me learn calculus and vacuum. I don't seem to know enough about calculus to formulate good questions, but maybe if I look at the vacuum cleaner and ask myself: "Ims there music in that thing?"

Comments

Have continually thought throughout my life that if anything would help me learn calculus it would be music. Put calculus to a hooky tune and I'll memorize it forever.
