Ask the Question.
Intelligence and understanding are not necessarily in the same family. There are many that can recite passages from books and reiterate opinions expressed from noted intellectuals. Of those, the number that can utilize critical thinking and reason is small.
Understanding is experiential and cannot be taught. One can grasp concepts and understand logic patterns and formula, but core truths must be experienced first-hand. In order to deepen understanding, we must be willing to ask the right questions and be open to the wisdom that can be gained from uncomfortable experiences.
What is the question that keeps you awake at night? Have you verbalized it? If you are able to clearly articulate it, ask the question aloud today. Declare it (to and for yourself) and direct your attention to its unfolding. Pay attention. Expect to receive an answer to your question. Assume that it is on the way. The answer or clues that you seek may show up in the most unlikely of places (an overheard conversation, dialogue on at TV show, an ad in a magazine, an article shared on social media, etc.
Success or sabotage? You can only achieve true success if you have a clear understanding of how success is defined for you. What does it look like? How will you know when it shows up? The answers will change as you evolve and grow; the questions will not.
Is this gong to be an incredible day? The only thing that stands in the way of this day being incredible is you. Decide what actions you will take to experience the kind of day that you desire (rather than simply hoping that it will show up).
