What would happen if we asked this question every morning and let the answer guide our choices that day? A powerful book on this topic is The Right Questions by Debbie Ford. Subtitle is Ten Essential Questions to Guide You to an Extrordinary Life.

When we're asking questions obviously we have placed ourseves in listening mode where we are much more effective communicators. Yes, I love that quote and I love feeling alive! That's the key; what triggers that feeling of authentic aliveness is unique to each of us and that special thing is what we all need to do more of.

You remind me of how important questions are, and how we'd all communicate better if we asked more of them--especially powerful ones. I particularly like your question on what brings me alive, as I'm particularly fond of Howard Thurman's well-known quote, “Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.” That has been particularly helpful in my own life. Tom,
