Maybe it’s a case of–once a teacher, always a teacher–but what helps me navigate an uneven stretch of life is forming and asking good, thoughtful questions. Before any answers can be given or lessons learned, questions must be formed.

Think about it. When you were in school and didn’t know something, you were supposed to raise your hand and ask questions. To learn, to grow, to understand you must be willing to simply brave up and ask questions.

Questions that fuel self-discovery.

Questions that examine your decency. Your empathy. Your legacy.

Questions that make you happy and grateful and inspired to be alive.

Simply asking questions today–even if they go unanswered–help us arrive to tomorrow with clarity, focus, and more direction than we had before.

Be well,

Jay
