Weekly Quote: Asking the Right Questions with Michael Hyatt and Daniel Harkavy

"Our lives are shaped by the questions we ask. Good questions lead to good outcomes. Bad questions lead to bad outcomes." Living Forward by Michael Hyatt and Daniel Harkavy

This week’s quote comes from Living Forward by Michael Hyatt and Daniel Harkavy.

How often have you been a part of the decision-making process that doesn’t go anywhere? It happens pretty regularly to most of us, and by the end, you’re left with frustration and no actionable outcome.

The missing piece was likely the need for the right questions.

This happened to me recently. My wife and I were doing some planning and decision-making, and we both realized how stuck we felt in a conversational loop. My wife, one of the most intelligent and most emotionally available people I’ve ever met, stepped outside of herself and asked a higher-level question that neither of us had considered but both of us very much needed to hear.

It provided clarity and a new perspective that didn’t make our decision for us, but it helped us get closer to a resolution. Asking good questions, the right questions, can be the difference maker.
