thought-
provoking
questions?

33. A good question can
open minds and lift
one’s spirit. And to
create one, here are
some simple steps.

34. 1. Have your
FOCUS.
• What specifically do I want to
know?
• Is this more than a simple YES or
NO question?
• Am I going for deeper
knowledge?

35. 2. Set your
PURPOSE.
• Why am I asking this?
• Do I want to gather facts or
opinions?
• Do I need simple
clarification?

36. 3. Show your INTENT.
• How do I want people to respond?
• Do I want the answer to be of help to others?
• Am I asking to start an argument or open a
discussion?
• Am I asking out of frustration or curiosity?
• Am I willing to show respect/deference to the
person I’m asking?

37. 4. Think of your
FRAME.
• Am I using easily understandable terms and
wording?
• Is my question neutral or does it contain bias
or opinion?
• Is it too long or too short?
• Does the question focus on only one thing?

38. 5. Give your FOLLOW-
UP.
• Do I have any more specific questions to add?
• Will the person I’m asking be available for
other questions if need be?
• If I still don’t have the answer I need, what’s
my plan?
• What can I do to if I still don’t understand?

39. Look at the Examples
What are you most grateful for?
• I am most grateful for my life. It is a
blessing. God gave us this wonderful
gift so we must take good care of it. We
only live once so we must make the
best out of it.
