So Albert Einstein said “If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on the solution, I would spend the first 55 minutes determining the proper question to ask… for once I know the proper question, I could solve the problem in less than five minutes.” In the novel ”The Left Hand of Darkness” They had a religion that was based around asking the proper question they talked about this person who found out how he was going to be murdered and because of the answer he got became a hermit for years and ended up being murdered by his spouse as she was stir crazy. So if you have the answer it is only applicable if you know the right question.
Crafting great questions is what makes it possible to make imaginative leaps in our lives. How many questions a day do you ask? What is the quality of those questions? As adults many of us have lost our curiosity. Many feel that as “Experts” we don’t need to ask questions. But real experts ask a higher level of question. Researchers work very hard on their question. The question they ask if not right will skew the results or make the research pointless.
“Harvard Business Review” did an article on the “Surprising Power of Great Questions.” They state that questioning is a skill that can be honed. “It (Questioning) spurs learning and the exchange of ideas, it fuels innovation and performance improvement, it builds rapport and trust…” They state by asking questions we can increase our emotional intelligence. Asking questions also increases interpersonal bonding. Bringing us closer together. Questions are an easy tool to add to improve your life.
