Nine Questions to Ask Yourself
Q1) What do I really want in life?
It’s so much easier to know what we do not want to become than to know what we want to be. What do you want to achieve in this lifetime, and what legacy are you going to leave behind?
Q2) Why do I want to change?
I think it is very important to find your answer to Q1 first, before attempting to even change yourself. Identify all the bad behaviors patterns that are stopping you from moving forward.
Q3) What’s the silver lining in all of this?
With so many encounters around us, there appear to be no elbowroom for even reckoning that light at the end of the tunnel. We can nevertheless see it as something positive without going through so a good deal of examination. And if it’s a train at the end of the tunnel, take it for a ride and see what makes the world go round!
Q4) Am I comfortable with what I’m practicing?
There is always the easy way and the right way when it concerns deciding what which shoes, or handbag, shirt and knickknack to put on today. It does not take an Einstein to ascertain you as someone unique, or else we’ll all be equally the same in every way we behave.
Q5) Have I acted responsibly for myself?
Have you, or is there something more you desire to achieve? Discontentment in every aspect can be dangerous in big doses, but in small quantities you will be able to visualize and do stuff you might never dreamt of accomplishing
Q6) Am I attractive to the opposite sex?
So perhaps I do not have an answer to it, but that does not mean I cannot attempt it, though. Whether you get in shape, change your sense of fashion through clothes of hairstyle, or even your attitude towards other people, you ought to always remember it will always be for your own welfare.
Q7) How much is enough?
I guess in this case there is no such things on having things too much or too little, but it’s more on how badly you really want it. I want to have lots of money, no denying that, but the question is that how much effort will you be you willing to put in? Be specific, quantifying how much you want will give you a better perspective of where you stand; how much effort you need to get there.
Q8) What motivates me?
What motivates you? It is an answer you have to ascertain yourself. There are plenty of things that can make you euphoric, however to pick out just one among the midst might be the most arduous part. It is not like you cannot have just a single serving of your favorite food that was laid on a buffet table and that’s it. Just savour it piece by piece.
Q9) Are you doing something that you really like or is it because that you have to do it?
Many people tend to think that by doing something they have to do means that they like what they do. In actual fact, many of us out there do not even like what we do everyday! For example, dragging yourself out of bed to make it in time for work although you’ll like to snooze for a while longer (sounds familiar?). You may not like your job, but still you have to do it, just because you have to, in order to get that paycheck at the end of the month!
Humans are creatures of habits. We tend to end up in an area call the Comfort Zone, which may not be that comfortable after all. But it is something that we are familiar with, thus never really make the effort to change for the better. Think about the 9 questions & you may just be surprised by the answers you have given for yourself!
