Thought-full Thursday: Living the Questions


“Have patience with everything that remains unsolved in your heart. Try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books written in a foreign language. Do not now look for the answers. They cannot now be given to you because you could not live them. It is a question of experiencing everything. At present you need to live the question. Perhaps you will gradually, without even noticing it, find yourself experiencing the answer, some distant day.”

Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

 

  • What questions, if answered, will release your full leadership potential?
  • What questions, if answered, will release the full potential of your employees?
  • What keeps you from asking?
  • What compels you to ask?
  • What questions will you let simmer?
