Ever wonder why you aren’t successful? Why you can’t lose weight? Why you are so broke? Why your relationship is not doing so well? Or maybe you want to know why you are always sick, and why you don’t enjoy life. We all have gone there before, asking the wrong questions and then finding undesired answers. The funny part is that we ask questions for something we don’t want with the intention of what we do want and then we become upset with the undesired result we are given. That undesired result, even though it’s not what we really want, is still the exact answer to the question asked.

We always ask ourselves questions all day long in our own minds. Once we ask a question, our subconscious mind gives us an answer, always. What most people fail to understand is that asking questions like “Why can‘t I do such and such” will only give you a relevant answer. It seems pretty crazy how we ask a disempowering question and then have the nerve to expect an amazing result! It just doesn’t work that way. You ask of something positive, you get something positive. You ask of something negative, you get something negative. Depression can start for people that consistently ask disempowering questions that mainly focus on what they lack. You should never focus on your lack, unless you want more of it. Focusing on what you want will always grow stronger in your life. As we ask ourselves questions, what we are doing is focusing on the question, and the answer or solution. As we do that our subconscious mind will search and find an answer.

Normally I ask myself a question not even realizing I am asking a question and I always get my answer. If I’m about to leave and I can’t remember where I placed my keys last, what I would do is ask “Where did I put those keys?” Next thing you know, “Here they are” I find them. I also often see people who others say are very negative about everything. You’ve seen these people, every time you talk to them about something they have something negative to say no matter what it is (but not you of course ). I have asked “What is it that is good about this person?” or “Why is this person so positive around me?” Every time I asked those empowering questions it seems as if was having conversations with totally different people. I focused on the positive questions and I got a positive result even though those particular people were considered negative (this goes to show everyone has something positive about them). Everyone has experienced this in one way or another whether they can realize it or not.

So the first thing you should do to start asking the right questions to get the right answers is to be aware of the current questions you are habitually asking yourself. Then once you know what you are dealing with, you can then begin to change those disempowering questions into questions that will always return a positive result. A good example : instead of “Why am I so broke?” change it to “Why am I so wealthy in all areas of my life?” Instead of “Why am I having such a bad day” change it to “Why am I having such a good day.” If you are in business, don’t ask “why aren’t we making our sales plan?” You should be asking “How can we make our sales plan?”

Or “What proper steps must we take in order to reach and achieve our sales plan” No matter what you do always ask the right question that is formed in a way that could only bring the truly desired answer that you want. Remember, asking disempowering questions about what you don’t want will absolutely never give you want you want and deserve. It may seem strange, but it most definitely works well, but ONLY to the EXTENT that you take it to.
