The Power of (Your) Questions

We live into the questions we ask ourselves.

If we ask crap questions, like “Why does this always happen to me?” or “How come I can never catch a break,?” we’ll get crap “answers.”

Similarly, if we ask small, or limiting, questions we will have requisitely small lives.

However, if we ask useful, resourceful questions, we’ll get answers we can use, answers that are helpful.

Our questions are just an aspect of our self-talk.

And, as our self-talk goes, so go our lives.
