Something a
bit different today thoughts from the holiday period;
When I run
my life and my various business interests I have a saying that I use throughout
whatever it is I am working on; “The results you get are based on the quality
of questions you ask yourself”. To elaborate further and add to that, a “Reader
is Leader”. If a person does not spend time reading, learning and growing, and
it all starts with reading, then a person is stagnant and not growing. If a
person does not read how can they lead? How can you lead yourself, your children,
your partner, your business, your employees, or lead in any other life matter,
if you have not had a foundation of reading, studying and hence learning so you
can become a positive contributor and lead with a well-read understanding of
matters on hand.
If you are
a reader the questions you ask yourself will improve every day to a higher quality,
because of your better understand of matters on hand, and if you’re asking yourself
better questions, then when a problem, or any item that takes considerable thought
comes across your path you have the knowledge to ask people the quality
questions to help provide insightful answers. If you cannot ask quality
questions, how can you expect to get quality answers? If you cannot ask
yourself quality questions how can you expect to hold an intellectual conversation
and ask other people quality problem solving questions, or go on a significant
fact finding mission. It holds no water.
So in short
and to recap;
“The
results you get are based on the quality of questions you ask yourself”.
Become a
reader as a well-read person is one who can positively contribute to matters of
significant in whatever field they choose
If you
cannot ask yourself quality questions and hence cannot be in a position to ask
other people quality questions, how do you think that will impact the results
you get from your life?
Be well
read and versed on aspects that impact your life and put in a meaningful
contribution.
All reading
falls apart without follow through and action, you can be the smartest guy in
the world but if you lock yourself in your room what’s the point?
Look after
your mind and body spend your spare time reading, learning and growing and take
action today, for tomorrow never comes.
