Today is International Question Day - What does that mean? It means, in order to live life to its potential, we need to learn how to ask better questions.

http://questionday.com/

According to the official website, "The goal of International Ask a Question Day is for people to benefit from asking more and better questions. Everyone asks questions; few people use them powerfully or as successfully as they could." It continues by saying there 12 reasons to ask questions:

*Gather information
*Learn and teach
*Think clearly, critically, strategically
*Challenge assumptions
*Clarify and confirm listening
*Catalyze productive conversation
*Build and maintain relationships
*Reflect and build awareness
*Solve problems and make decisions
*Set and accomplish goals
*Negotiate and solve conflicts
*Create and innovate new possibilities

I think it might be fun for each person who wants to participate on this thread to pick a question from 1 of the 12 categories and ask a question to the bfp audience. You can either post a question or respond to a question previously posted, or both!

My question is from the set and accomplish goals category - Do you currently have set/defined goals for your future, or do you prefer to go with the flow and face life as it unfolds?

I have set/defined goals for the day, week, month, year, decade, and lifetime. Also the next hour.

My question is from the "Think clearly, critically, strategically" category:

Would you rather fight 1 horse-sized duck or 100 duck-sized horses?
