Questioning To Get Better Answers

Listen to "Questions With Real Answers" on Spreaker. I openly admit that I am a "Question" junkie. I love asking them. I love answering them. I'm deeply bothered by those who choose not to use one of the most valuable tools given to us around two years old. Nothing charges up my batteries quicker then watching a little human stick figure asking their parents questions at the grocery story. They've chosen that moment to learn something new. As adults most of us think we need answers. We've taught ourselves to reach out to these new fangled digital devices,"Alexa who won the 1972 World Series?" We're pretty much wasting a lot of precious time asking dumb questions or questions that truly don't help us build better foundations. None of us truly pretend to know it all but you'd be amazed at how much you truly do know. But you aren't activating it. Content is a chunk of gold in the right place at the right time. But if you aren't doing anything with the answer you've just received no wonder bosses and business owners look brighter then the employee. They got there by stepping away from what's comfortable and asking the right question.
