I am more interested in how things around me work. I am so quite skeptical of what people or the news says… If I don’t see evidence, I won’t believe it.
its been the reason i get paid and given me purpose to make a difference. i too like Rebecca – believe in evidence and its helped me fix a lot of issues as i work on facts and not what people say.
Being a scientist has made me curious about almost everything, and that itself leads me to always want to know more about things around us. It has made me successful in my career and allowed me to work with some truly amazing people from around the world.
It’s really opened my eyes to the vast amount of careers that are available in science and has given me a better understanding of how things work. It has also made me more curious of how things work or if I spot a factory (especially if it has lots of towers or silos) I will want to know what they do there.
working in science has enabled me to meet people from all kinds of backgrounds and to have friends across generations from 18-70+ as we are all scientists. it has given me a sense of purpose. a job i enjoy and the money i receive allows me to pay all the bills and indulge in some hobbies
It keeps me curious about the world around me, looking for the details behind the bigger picture, exploring the less well known places which can be just as amazing as the ones everyone sees on social media
I think that science impacts all aspects of my life. Like others have mentioned it makes me more critical of the world around me, especially in a world of social media and fake news. It has also continued to fuel my curiosity in nature and to continue to ask questions of everything. I think the main point I have to add on previous questions is that the people I have met through science have shaped my life the most. Most of my friends and social relationships I have met through my roles in science and they are wonderful people I love dearly. Finding a space where you are surrounded by people with the same interests as you makes your life and work so much more fun.
