You have to be curious.
And you have to be willing to ask really dumb questions.
And I find that that’s something that a lot of students I teach at Caltech,
where we get very bright students,
they’re all panicked of asking questions because they don’t want to look stupid...
...in front of their fellow students.
That’s a terrible trait. You have to be willing to ask stupid questions.
And I think you have to also be able to...
...attack a problem that you really believe in, because science is really difficult...
...and unless you’re doing something that you believe can make a difference...
...and that you’re really willing to be engaged in 100 per cent, it’s not worth it.
You might as well do something else.
So ask good questions, trust your instincts and work on a problem that you deeply care about.
