Do you recall when you were younger, the amount of questions you would ask about life? Have you ever paid attention to a child when they are discovering what this world is about? My children ask millions of questions by the time they are 5 years old and I am astounded at the wisdom they gain in such a short amount of time.

Have you ever wondered why, when you go to a specialist, that they ask you a lot of questions? A true expert rarely just gives you advice. They will calmly draw out from within you the answers that you hold.

When did we stop asking questions? Why is it that most of us think we have life figured out and there is nothing left to ask?

The only way to grow in this life is to ask questions. Why do I do this? How does this work? What are you doing? Where are we going? What am I making? These are a few of the many questions we can ask each day.

Wisdom comes from seeking and seeking comes in the form of a question.

I challenge you to start asking more questions. Throughout the day, ask yourself why you do things, how you can improve, how things work and anything else that comes to mind. At night before you go to bed, ask yourself the things you would like to know. Your mind will go to work while you rest and by morning or within a few days, you’ll have your answer. The mind wants to figure things out and in most cases, will leave no question unanswered.

Be ready when the answers come. Keep a notepad or recorder with you at all times. Sleep with one next to your bed, so when those insights come, you can quickly jot them down.

When you ask good questions, life give you good answers. When you ask bad questions, you get answers in kind. Questions like; “Why does this always happen to me?” allow the mind to come back and say, “Because you are a victim!” Ask questions that lead in the direction you desire to go and you’ll get answers to get you there.

Your success is dependent on the questions you ask and the frequency of them. Return to your youth, re-light that youthful curiosity and become what you dream about by asking questions!
