What's the Point?

The Power of Your Curiosity! Inquiries...

“We find intimacy through a search for comfort with ambiguity. We do not grow by knowing all the answers, but rather by living with the questions.” -Max DePree, Leadership is an Art

In coaching, we call living with a question an "Inquiry". It is a powerful tool to pull you forward and help you find what you need, to solve the challenge before you. An inquiry is usually tailored to your situation and most often a question that you can’t answer immediately but, need to sit with, sleep on and play with.

What is the inquiry that you need to sit with? What question would have the power to pull you forward?

By taking a few quiet moments, you will usually intuitively know what question you need to be asking but, if you are puzzled, experiment.

Oh! One Last Point!

If you are not familiar with the TED Talks, you might want to check them out at TED. They are informative and inspiring and many of them are also quite entertaining.

To get you started, here is one that I find fascinating due to my interest in play, Why Play is Vital by Stuart Brown.

Any Comments? Ideas? Feedback? Other "Points" you think I should include? I'd love to hear from you. Just reply and tell me what you think!
