One more thought: It's worth exploring how curiosity *does not* help with getting things done as well. It seems pretty clear that if your curiosity sends you off in a dozen different directions and fractures your attention, then it can prevent you from staying focused long enough to get something done. For lack of a better term, we could distinguish between micro-curiosity and macro-curiosity. Micro-curiosity is being curious within the domain of a particular task. Asking questions about how things work, exploring different lines of attack for solving the problem, when you read stuff from outside domains you're always looking for ways to transfer knowledge back to your main task, etc. Even when you're exploring widely, you're generally moving the ball forward on the main thing. Start one thing, keep searching until you find the best way to finish it. Macro-curiosity is being curious across various domains. You're jumping from one topic to the next, they aren't necessarily related, your efforts don't accumulate, you're simply exploring. You're rarely focusing on one thing long enough to see it through to completion. Start many things, finish few. It seems like being micro-curious would definitely help with getting things done and being macro-curious could often prevent you from getting things done.

Remember: No methodology guarantees success on its own. You'll need a healthy dose of strong leadership, strategy, talent, and luck too.
