Asking yourself better questions is the master key for success.

Life is a journey of solving problems day in day out. Our biggest barrier to our proper destination is failure to apply a mathematical principle that we were taught in grade 1 of solving and simplifying mathematical problems. I still remember my grade 1 teacher used to write mathematical questions on the chalkboard but before she writes 1+1 = ( ) ,she always says simplify the following then she starts writing all other questions. I couldn’t understand by then what principle of life was behind it.

Mathematics is a subject that trains the mind to think , just take a look on how university students are selected for different programmes. The most difficult programmes needs a student to have mathematics with a good pass. The assumption is that such students can be able to handle pressure and the demand of the subject matter.

I always ask myself why is it that we were able to simplify difficult equations at school and others are still simplifying them on different programmes but we fail to simplify our lives and maximise much out of it. The way we used to apply different formulae to different mathematical questions is the same principle we need to apply when it comes to our lives.
Well answered difficult questions give's you more marks. The type of questions you ask yourself will determine the type of answers you get and the results you get at the end of the day. In many cases people are afraid to ask themselves difficult questions because they are afraid of honest answers from their conscience that leads to pain, so to avoid the pain people avoid questioning themslves. Our minds are programmed to avoid pain and entertain pleasure, that in many cases abstract us from making and bring the change we want. Pain is associated with change so to change we need to learn to endure pain.

Let's take this in this way, have you ever wrote a difficult test thinking you were going to fail and when the results came you were the highest. Same is life it needs the courage to write your own exam to get results. Results are received from a test, a test that caused someone to spent sleepless nights studying to receive the desired outcome. Three quarters of the people have worked so hard to earn the best qualification but still failing to ask and answer themselves better fulfilling questions, questions that can bring about change, joy, happiness, satisfaction, freedom the list is endless to their lives.

From Today have the courage to ask yourself difficult questions , questions that will grow you. What do I want in my life , Am I satisfied with my life financially, spritually and so on. Dont just end by asking yourself that, but have a powerful reason why do I need to change, why changing now, what happens if you don’t change, how many people are to be affected if you don’t change and dont forget of course the consequence of not changing.

After having the answers to all the questions, have the courage to go and look for what you want. In many cases I always ask myself what can I do to change my life and I finally got the answer, change of attitude towards any situation. It is the attitude that has the eyes to see opportunities in a problem and to expand in time of difficulties. It gives you the energy to push your vision forward when the body is complaining.

NEVER GIVE UP PUSH UNTIL YOU GET THE RESULTS.
