The Right Questions

You have heard it before that there are no wrong questions. I believe that there are the right questions and wrong questions. The right answer to the wrong question is a waste of time. Keep asking the right questions and eventually you will get the right answers.

Asking the right questions is the key to breakthroughs in life; it bridges the gap between where we are and where we need to go.

The quality of our questions determines the quality of our lives. Are we asking the right questions to ourselves and those around us?

Questioning is an art; it takes practice to ask quality questions. Also, it takes great interpersonal skills to get our questions right.

We normally want to get quick answers that we forget to frame our questions the right way.

Asking open-ended questions is the best way to start the path to get the right answers.

Learn to ask what and how questions and be open to the right information to start living a better life; the life you were meant to live.

Here are a few sample questions we ought to ask ourselves:

1.      What is my purpose and mission in life?

2.      How can I live my purpose and mission in life?

3.      What am I doing that will continue aster I am gone?

4.      What can I start doing to become who I was born to be?

5.      What can I stop doing that is not contributing to living my purpose and mission in life?

6.      What areas of my life do I need to improve the most?

7.      How can I apply what I already know to get my goals and dreams?

Bonus:  What do I believe in and why do I believe in what I believe?

We can get all we need in life if we ask the right questions to the right people at the right time.

Be blessed and be a blessing to others!
