How do we think, what gets in the way and how can we think better?

The Questions That Unlock Real Happiness

Thinking well begins with asking the right questions.

Try asking yourself:

What really matters to me?
  • What brings me joy and meaning?
  • Whose expectations am I trying to meet?
  • Will this decision make me happy in the long term?

    One of our advisers describes this as “daring to dream.” It is the courage to ask honest questions, even when the answers might challenge the path you are on.

    The right questions bring not confusion, but freedom.

    Thinking Tools That Make a Difference

    A few simple shifts in perspective can make a big difference.

    Look beyond first impressions. If something seems like the key to happiness, pause and ask, What happens next?
  • Spot your zero. Notice one thing that could cancel out your progress — the habit or belief that quietly undermines your wellbeing.
  • Focus on what is truly yours. Choose goals that reflect your own values, not those that rely on the approval of others.

    When your goals come from within, they lead to satisfaction that lasts.
