Being naturally curious is a valuable characteristic. It indicates an open willingness to learn.

Yes.

One question leads me to another question. Same with the projects I'm supposed to be working on.........................I start one project, and wander into another.

In the end, no questions are answered, and no projects are completed.

In the case of the title to your post, the meaning of lead would actually be this. It would better be used here in the past tense: One Question Asked and it Led Me to Another Question?

Personally, I'd use "leads" in that sentence, were I to comment

As long as you have some direction, you should be OK.

The secret of inventing, designing or imagining is that one question can lead to several more, being aware of this and being able to harness it is what makes us human, smart and intelligent.

So enjoy it to the max.
