I was listening to Robin Sharma‘s life changing audio book The Greatness Guide this morning. In chapter 24 “On Obituaries and the Meaning of Life”, he suggest asking yourself five questions at the end of each day.
When it comes to leading a rich life so much is determined by the quality of the questions we ask. Robin has found in his work as a success coach, that one of the dominant traits of extraordinary people is the discipline of be more reflective than most of us. So ask profound questions. Good questions lead to excellent answers, and greater clarity is the DNA of authentic success and personal greatness.
Here are Robins 5 questions which he suggests have great potential to help you to think deeply and connect with what matters the most. Ask yourself these five questions today, write your answers in your journal, talk about them, think about them.
Did I dream richly?
Did I live fully?
Did I learn to let go?
Did I love well?
Did I tread lightly on the Earth and leave it better than I found it?
These questions have brought some wonderful insight into my life and I’m so happy I’ve been able to spend more time thinking, reflecting and asking the right questions. It is my hope that these questions will help you in some way and enrich you life with more clarity and meaning.
