Everything that humans have achieved till now is a result of asking questions.
Asking right questions and looking for the correct answer have created all the innovation and discoveries that were made.
An article in success.com states that ,'Questions push people to figure out the answers on their own. The question system has been used by coaches of elite athletes and almost all therapists. It’s helpful in discovering a person’s individual way of thinking and their mental blocks, and in applying specific mindsets to help them achieve their goals.'
So what are the benefits of asking question?
As a child all of us would have started to explore things and everything we have learnt till date is because we wanted to know 'Why'.
But as we grow up we stop asking questions and feel that we have learnt enough already, which is why we get stuck whenever we get caught in a new situation. Our brain tries to find out how to solve the problem with our past experience.
The quality of the questions we ask determine what we become in the future. The more refined one's question is the better will be the answer.
Questioning also makes one open to new ideas as the brain becomes flexible and creates more patterns which will inturn make decision making less biased.
Above all questioning can lead to happiness and eternal peace once people understand who they are. People understand how to be at peace as they realise that they are the creators of their feelings.
The best way to begin is by asking simple but deep questions and later move on to difficult ones. The more questions we ask, the more we take control of our life.
