The Right Questions Book Review
I’m a sucker for a good book, and Debbie Ford’s book The Right Questions
It’s a list of universal questions to ask before making any decision. I like simple, easily applied concepts, and just by reading the questions themselves you can start to make positive changes everywhere. Yes, these work for business too.
1. Will this choice propel me toward an inspiring future or will it keep me stuck in the past?
2. Will this choice bring me long term fulfillment or will it bring me short term gratification?
3. Am I standing in my own power or am I trying to please another?
4. Am I looking for what’s right, or am I looking for what’s wrong?
5. Will this choice add to my life force, or will it rob me of my energy?
6. Will I use this situation as a catalyst to grow and evolve or will I use it to beat myself up?
7. Does this choice empower me or dis-empower me?
8. Is this an act of self-love or self-sabotage?
9. Is this an act of faith or an act of fear?
10 Am I choosing from my Divinity or am I choosing from my humanity?
Asking whether or not a decision or an action will bring you short term fulfillment or short term gratification is a biggie, at least for me. Making sure every action is conscious and planned and in line with your life vision is one of the greatest concepts I’ve picked up from the book. Also, whether or not a choice will add to your life force makes a lot of sense to me, as I’ve seen lately that building up your life force and truly being yourself is the most productive thing you can do.
So get out there and get the book. If you can’t afford it, read it in the store. It’s a quick hundred and sixty pages, and contains a whole lot of universal truths. But don’t pay too much attention to the author herself as a guru. I hate gurus.
