Scott Shigeoka
Book - 2023

"Did you know that curiosity is your superpower? Though we often think of being curious as a personality trait, it's actually the foundation of our capacity for connection, growth, and healing. And at a moment when tensions over race, religion, age, gender identity, rights, economic status, and more have fractured our lives and relationships, curiosity is our most potent antidote. In this practical manifesto, Shigeoka takes readers on a four-phase journey to deep curiosity, showing us how to strengthen this fundamental human skill through his DIVE model-Detach, Intend, Value, Embrace-and build the courage to be transformed by the people, places, and experiences we encounter. Through more than fifteen actionable tools, readers will enhance their capacity to: -Detach - Let go of your ABCs (Assumptions, Biases, Certainty) -Intend - Prepare your mindset and environment -Value - See the dignity of every person-including yourself! -Embrace - Welcome the hard times in life as a catalyst for connection and transformation. Whether you're struggling to connect with a loved one across political divides or just want to build more trusting, productive relationships at work, Seek is a must-read for our times"--

520 |a Did you know that curiosity is your superpower? It's no secret that division, loneliness, and polarization are on the rise--to catastrophic impact on our personal lives. While we often think of curiosity as a personality trait, internationally recognized curiosity expert Scott Shigeoka knows that it's actually the most potent tool we have to bridge our differences and heal relationships: from political blow-ups to age divides at work; religious differences to languishing friendships; gun rights to gender rights. In SEEK, Shigeoka blends cutting-edge research on curiosity with wisdom from years of grassroots community work and the stories of people living at the threshold of deep curiosity--ancient wayfinders in the Pacific Ocean, catholic nuns and Millennial seekers sharing a convent, a wildland firefighter in Montana, and more--as he takes readers on a journey to understand the power of deep curiosity. With the support of Shigeoka's four-phrase DIVE model, readers will learn to: -Detach - Let go of your ABCs (Assumptions, Biases, Certainty) -Intend - Prepare your mindset and setting -Value - See the dignity of every person, including themselves -Embrace - Welcome the hard times in their lives, as they unlock the capacity for connection, healing and personal growth. With electric vulnerability, thoughtful storytelling, and actionable tools, SEEK calls each of us to stop turning away from what is unfamiliar, uncomfortable, or unknown and, instead, embrace our power to seek.
