Asking Questions for Success
Jul 16, 2025Do you know what’s more powerful than giving yourself a little pep talk full of pithy affirmations? Asking yourself great, positive, affirmative and aspirational questions.
It all comes down to how your subconscious mind goes to work. If you give yourself an affirmation, “I’m confident!” your subconscious judges the strength and validity of that. If you give yourself a question, your subconscious goes to work to find the answer. “How did I become so confident, so quickly?”
Note that’s a different question from, “How do I become confident?” Remember, you’re going to frame your question as something that’s positive and has already happened.
Thomas Edison is attributed with saying that you should never go to bed without giving a request to your subconscious. He knew that the subconscious mind was always at work. He often took naps in his lab, as if to get his conscious mind out of the way.
By asking positive questions of yourself, you’re essentially training your subconscious to look for the things you really want more of in your life.
Think about the main life areas of your life: relationships, wealth, health, career, etc.
What kinds of positive, as-if-it’s-already-done kinds of questions could you ask yourself?
Have some fun with this.
Keep making your magic. And I’ll see you here next week!
