It's not the quality of the answers that changes our lives, it's the quality of the question
I've spoken a lot about questions and how a good question can lead us down the path of true personal development. I wanted to expand just a little more to let you know the components of a good question.
The components of a good question
It's totally fascinating to learn that questions have certain components, and when we know these components for great questions we can start to ask ourselves better questions that move us forward in life.
Here are the five components of a good question:
1) It should look toward an outcome.
2) It is simple and clear
3) Opens new possibilities
4) It is thought provoking
5) Generates energy
With the above in mind I have compiled a list of 34 great questions we can ask ourselves to move our lives forward.
