Day 15 "Ask the Right Questions"

An example of asking the right questions is: If I want to lose 30 pounds, don't ask "how can I lose 30 pounds". Instead ask "how can I lose 2 pounds". Do this 15 times and you've lost the 30.

We can't solve problems with the same questions we asked when the problem was first created. We often ask ourselves the same question over and over again. Ask 5 different end questions to a problem you might be stuck with and start answering them all.

  • How can I free up more time for myself
  • How can I work smarter
  • How can this process be improved
  • How can I become more organized
Outcome: Advance to a higher position in Bresnan - trainer/instructor

Can outcome be broken down:
learn my technical assistance job well
Improve my teaching skills
Let me intentions be known

5 Questions
What can I do to improve my technical skills?
What can I do to improve my customer relations skills?
What can I do to improve my teaching skills?
What can I do to show my supervisor that I could excel in that position?
What other positions would I need to have first?
Are there any online course I could take?
Would I really like that position?
