What are YOUR Daily Questions?

Last week I heard a podcast on Marshall Goldsmith's routine of asking and getting asked a list of Daily Questions. Then I went to his phenomenal website - marshallgoldsmithlibrary.com! What a gold mine of resources! Anyway, here's the powerful technique that could be used by anyone to go further faster! Make an agreement with a friend to have a short once a day phone call to have this person ask you a list of your own questions. These questions will be written by you and sent to your friend. They will be questions that YOU want to pay attention to in your life. They can be anything at all. They are personal and just for you. And, when your friend asks you the questions, your response should be YES, NO or a number. For instance, What is your weight? Did you do your devotions today? On a scale of 1 - 10, how happy are you today? Did you give someone a compliment today? etc. When they ask you these questions, they are only permitted to listen and not to comment at all. There is tremendous power in having someone ask you "your own" questions. You may find that you make changes and grow in your ability to get things done, become kinder, weigh less or become happier. The power is simply in that you pay attention to certain aspects of your life. Give it a try. Let me know how you make out.
