174: Why I'm Using Questions Rather Than Goals for 2023
In 2023, I’m focusing on questions.
This idea came from a variety of sources I’ve been diving into lately. It was discussed in a book I was recently reintroduced to called A More Beautiful Question and in a course I recently took. In another book I read, The Highest Goal by Michael Ray, he talked about not focusing so much on goals but on questions. Ray calls these questions “live withs.”
I’ve been drawn to this idea of using questions rather than goals because too many of us tend to race to one answer or the other. Doing that just narrows our field of vision. I don’t think our goal should be to see how many answers we can find but, rather, to ask good questions.
In this episode, I’m diving more into this topic and sharing some of the questions I’m asking myself in 2023 both regarding my personal and business life.
We'll dive deeper into these concepts:
More on why I’m asking questions rather than setting goals for 2023.
