The Amazing Power of Gentle Inquiry

Jump to Comments

If you had more energy, a greater sense of well being, could you achieve more?

If you exercised a little more, maybe ate a little less, could that increase your energy?  Is there one thing that you could commit to do now that would improve your health, your energy, just a little? What is it?

If you committed to the tiniest, incremental, daily improvement, would that have a positive cumulative effect on your sense of well-being? Would you be a healthier person in one year?

Is it easy to make small incremental changes in your habits?

Could you do something similar with your emotional state?  Can you remember one moment in your life when you were ecstatic… happy, successful, joyful, worthy, blissful, proud, a winner, important, applauded, loved, hugged, blessed, patted on the back, needed, cheered, kissed?

If you practiced vividly visualizing such moments and stored them in a pocket in your mind so you could re-experience one as easily as pulling a gold coin from your pocket to rub, would doing this give you more control over your emotional states?

If you learned to control what you focus upon, would you gain an advantage?  Can you choose in any moment to focus upon whatever you want?  Does this insight give you power?  Can this power change your life for the better?

Are you in charge of your mind?

How can you access more of your potential?  What single skill could you develop that would allow you to access more of the resources within you – a life time of experience, learnings, emotions?  What same skill would allow you to learn more from others?

Did you ever have anyone show sincere interest in you by repeatedly asking you questions about you?  Did that make you feel good? Could you make others feel good by asking them similar questions?

What skill could you hone to help you build your business, to increase your income?  Would asking more questions of your customers likely lead to more business and more income?

What one skill do we humans have that animals seem to lack?

Do you know the meaning of the biblical admonition: ask and you will receive or knock and the door will be opened?

What skill could best help you build your wealth, wisdom, wonder and sense of well-being?  Can you practice and develop that skill?

If not now, when?
