The quality of your life depends on the quality of the questions that you ask. There are two types of questioning.
An article in success.com says that there are basically two types of questions, the one you ask yourself and the one you ask other people.
'Take Robbins’ famous question: Look at the worst thing that’s ever happened to you and ask, How is this the best thing that’s ever happened to me? You get what you focus on, and if you’re asking Why did this happen to me? or Why am I so unlucky? you’ve already solidified your base assumption that whatever happened is bad,' the article states.
The mind always replays the good and bad things that have happened to you. Asking the right question will always end up giving you the positive wave which will have a permanent place in the long-term memory.
Next come the questions that we ask to others, make sure that you ask the right questions that will make people excited to answer.
'Ron Penna, has always had a rabid aversion to discussing the weather. He’s essentially outlawed it at the company and rightfully so. The weather has entered our cultural consciousness as the standard conversation starter for one reason only: It’s an entirely safe and guaranteed area of commonality,' the article points out.
The questions that you ask give an idea of what you want from someone else. Make sure that you put forth clearer questions and make your intentions visible. Asking right questions will also enable you to take control of the conversation.
