Q-U-E-S-T-I-O-N


Voltaire said: "Judge a person by their questions rather than answers."

The willingness to ask questions coupled with the discipline to seek out answers separates leaders from followers. Those who influence question assumptions, inquire about the environment around them and prove into the future. They have an insatiable appetite to learn and they convert their knowledge to action at light speed.

By routinely questioning their goals, motives and purpose, leaders rener their self identity along with their sense of perspective. The benefits of examining yourself as a leader are:

1 Quality questions create a quality life.
2 Focused questions stimulates creative thinking.
3 Honest questions lead to solid convictions.
Inquisitiveness clarifies morals and beliefs.
4 Correct questions help us find ourselves and our mission.

Be aware, tackling life's questions brings direction and meaning to life's journey.

. What is your passion?
. What have you achieved?
. What have you done uncommonly well?
. How are you wired?
. Where do you belong?

These and other questions like them will direct you toward the self your heart longs for: they will help you discover the task for which you were especially made.
