QUESTIONS ARE

THE ANSWER

¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity."

- ALBERT EINSTEIN

Questions are the laser of human consciousness. Use their power to cut through any obstacle or challenge.

What's the primary difference between people who are successful and those who aren't? Quite simply, successful people are those who have asked better questions and, as a result, gotten better answers. When the automobile was in its infancy, hundreds of people tinkered with building them, but Henry Ford stood apart by asking,"How can I mass-produce such a machine?" Millions in Eastern Europe chafed under the iron yoke of communism, but Lech Walesa had the courage to ask, "How can I raise the standard of living for all working man and women?" If you were to let your imagination run wild, where might your questions lead you?

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Thinking is nothing but the process of asking and answering questions. In order to respond either way, didn't you have to ask yourself a question such as "Is that really true?" or"Do I agree with what he is saying?" Most of our thought processes - from evaluating ("How is that so?") to imagining ("What is possible?") to deciding (What I shall I do?") - involve asking and answering questions. Therefore, if we want to change the quality of our lives, we must change what we habitually ask of ourselves and others.

Kids are the all-time champions of questioning. What could you gain by imitating the innocence and curiosity of children who are completely determined to get an answer?
