Good Questions

The unexamined life is not worth living. Here are some questions, from leadership, management and mentoring consultant, Bobb Biehl -- Ten Questions to Refocus Your Life:

1. What is my single greatest strength? (What do I "do" the best?)
2. What three decisions are causing me the greatest stress?
3. What is overwhelming me?
4. What impassable roadblock has me stuck?
5. If I could only do three things before I die, what would I want to do?
6. What should I resign from or drop out of? (Drucker said, "Efficiency is doing things right, effectiveness is doing the right things.")
7. What can I postpone?
8. What things on my "to do" list can someone else do at least 80% as well?
9. What are the “elephants” in my schedule? (Pareto said, "If you're Noah, and your ark is about to sink, look for the elephants first.")
10. What are the three things I could do in the next 90 days to make a 50% difference?

"A leader knows what to do next, knows why that's important, and knows how to bring the appropriate resources to bear on the need at hand." Bobb Biehl
