Questions are the Answer


One of the best takeaways from the book 'Awaken the Giant Within' by Anthony Robbins was "Questions are the Answer"

The quality of questions that we ask in life will determine the quality of our life . There is nothing more true than this. Think back for a moment on the most wonderful memories that you have. What was behind those wonderful memories? 99% of the time it would be questions like – How do we make this wonderful ? How can we have an enjoyable time? What's the best thing in this moment?

Life changing events too have powerful questions. If you've watched the movie "The Pursuit of Happyness" the hero –a man who is always on the move and living in poor conditions sees a guy drive up in a Ferrari and ask's him 2 questions . What do you do ? How do you do it? The answers to those two questions transformed his life and made him into a financially savvy man with a large personal wealth,not without hard work though.

Questions help us focus on what we really want in life and anything we focus on we usually manifest in our lives.

Tony Robbins advocates asking ourselves "Power Questions" in the morning and in the evening.

Some of 'Morning Power Questions ' include

  1. What am I grateful about in my life?
  2. Who do I love in my life?
  3. Who loves me in my life?
  4. What am I excited about in my life?

Some of the 'Evening Power Questions' include

  1. What did I learn today?
  2. What have I contributed to the world today?

Some other great questions to ask

  1. What are my top 3 current goals?
  2. What is most important to me in life?
  3. If the my world was going to end within one year, what would I be doing right now?
  4. What will I do today towards my major goals?
  5. What action can I take instead of worry right now?
  6. What can I do right now to release negative energy in a positive way?
  7. What beneficial routines can I start today?
  8. What will I do, see, explore, or experience today that is new?
  9. How will I make today great? How do I define great?
  10. What's the most powerful thing I can do right now, today to increase my business?

A life worth living is a life worth sharing
