If you were to be recognized for one thing, what would it be?
If you could be granted one thing in life except money, what would it be?
If you were to decide how to spend your last day, what would you do?
If you could only do one thing your entire life, what would you do?
If you could invent anything that currently doesn't exist, what would it be?
If you could relive a day in the past, what day would that be?
If you could say only one word, what would you say?
If you had to sacrifice your life for one thing, what would it be?
The quality of the questions we ask ourselves determine the quality of life we live. While asking the right questions is only a start, we should do something about the answers we come up with. For example,"If you were to be recognized for one thing, what would it be?". I want to be known as someone who makes a positive difference in peoples lives. I want to be known as someone who adds value - a nutrient and not a weed. I am sure many you have the same aspirations, but what are you doing about it. Before you think of changing the world, whose world are you making a difference in right now- your family, neighbors, co-workers or even strangers? Little drops of water is what makes an ocean. Think globally but act locally. According to Thomas Edison, Success is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. There is never a perfect time or place to start, the best time is now.
There are some If questions that are not worth asking because there is nothing you can do about them. For such, you need to pray this out loud - God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference.. If questions can be powerful, they help bring to light what we value most. We produce results, when we focus on the things that matter most to us. The time to act is now, lets go.
