I've been thinking a lot lately about the power in asking better questions. Meaning, learn how to ask better questions to get more effective results.
Thinking is asking and answering questions. If you want better answers from you're spouse, family, supervisor, those you lead, then learn to ask better questions.
For example, take control of your question and answering process by asking empowering questions. Don’t ask “why” question (e.g. why can’t I do this?), ask “how” questions (e.g. how can I do this?) Ask happy questions or inspiring questions.
Another example use precision and ask precisely instead of generalizing or abstracting.
