THE POWER OF QUESTION!

I’ve personally found my biggest personal growth has come from having the patience to answer good questions. The ones that make me think.

Voltaire once said…
“Judge a man by his questions rather than his answers.”

Many of us are always seeking answers, but are we asking the right questions? And once we find the right questions, are we giving ourselves enough time to answer them? Often times we are so busy with life, we find it difficult to slow down or find the time. Always rushing from this to that.

“We hear only those questions for which we are in a position to find answers.” – Friedrich Nietzsche

Your level of personal growth is in direct correlation to the quality of questions you ask yourself.

The answers may lead to more questions. That’s ok. The more you question, the more you will learn. The more you learn, the more you grow.

You have the answers within you, just be patient enough to listen to them.

Over the last couple of months, I have been sending out a weekly ‘Start Me Up’ email. It starts with a section called Things That Make You Go Hmmmmmmmmmmmm. I have summarized those questions and included them below.

Create a place free from distractions and ponder away.

1. If today were the last day of my life…

2. What do I like to do for fun?

3. Money is no object, I will…

4. On a scale of 1-10, how busy am I?
Why do I make myself busy?

I was born and raised in Hamilton, Ontario and for as long as I can remember, I’ve always been very positive & optimistic. As a young boy, I was a dreamer, a doer and excited for life! I remember growing up, before any big test at school, or soccer game, my mom would always remind me to Do My Best! I’m a wee bit of a perfectionist because of that. And, today, I’m still all of those things, but now a man, driven, dedicated and committed to living a life on my own terms.
