How do we know what to read? What questions bother most of us? Do these questions even have an answer?
Triple the impact of your reading. Focus on hard questions. These questions usually have multiple answers, and yet no answer satisfies completely.

This course is not about finding final answers—it’s about reigniting your curiosity, embracing ambiguity, and developing the philosophical and intellectual tools to live with, and grow from, the world’s most challenging questions. Many of these questions arise in our teenage years, long before we have the experience or perspective to address them. By the time we have those skills, we often move on, missing the opportunity to let these questions shape our thinking and personal growth.

Here, you’re invited to return to those essential questions and keep them alive throughout your life. Instead of searching for quick solutions, you’ll learn to appreciate the inquiry itself—using curiosity as your compass and letting each question open new paths for learning and reflection.

Throughout the course, you’ll encounter timeless dilemmas such as “Is there a God?”, “What is the purpose of life?”, and “Can luck be controlled?”, as well as modern puzzles like “Will computers rule the world?” and “How can multitasking ever be effective?” The focus is not on right or wrong answers, but on developing habits and tools for deep, thoughtful questioning.

You’ll gain:

• Practical techniques for Socratic questioning—learning how to dig beneath the surface of any issue.

• Tools to break down complex questions, spot hidden assumptions, and recognize connections across disciplines.

• Strategies for reading with philosophical curiosity, transforming even simple texts into gateways for deeper exploration.

• Methods for engaging in reflective dialogue, considering multiple viewpoints, and building intellectual humility.

• Habits for linking your reading and life experience to the biggest puzzles, using every book or article as a springboard for self-discovery.

With more than 25 topics spanning philosophy, ethics, science, psychology, and daily life, you’ll practice asking better questions, challenging assumptions, and building the confidence to live with complexity.

Rather than searching for perfect answers, you’ll discover the richness of the questioning process itself—developing the wisdom to live with uncertainty, the curiosity to keep seeking, and the resilience to find meaning in the lifelong journey of inquiry.

Let curiosity lead your way, and turn every question into an opportunity for growth.
