Discover where you stand on the curiosity ladder.

Curiosity shows up in different ways – at work, in relationships, or in how we relate to ourselves. This quiz invites you to pause and reflect on one area of your life where curiosity feels low or where a lack of it might be holding you back.

The curiosity ladder is a simple yet powerful framework that explores six stages of curiosity:

• Curiouslessness: You rarely feel the urge to explore new things.
• Curious by conformity: You’re curious because it’s expected or others are doing it.
• Curious by achievement: Your curiosity is driven by goals, results, or recognition.
• Curious by reflection: You pause to reflect, gaining insight from experiences and new perspectives.
• Curious by purpose: Your curiosity is guided by what matters to you – your values and mission.
• Curious by authenticity: Curiosity is a core part of who you are – a natural way of expressing your true self.

Discover your curiosity stage

Curiosity is a journey – and wherever you find yourself on the Curiosity Ladder, there’s always room to grow, reflect, and explore what’s next.

If learning about the six stages has sparked something in you, that’s a great sign. It means you’re ready to take a deeper look – not just at where you are, but at where you want to go.
