Transitioning Questions To Achieve Better Results

When the questions you ask aren’t getting you the answers & results you want, you have to transition to asking smarter questions so you achieve better results.

There is not a business owner out there who does not have the intention of getting better results in their business.

However, many simply do not transition their subconscious questions to conscious questions to achieve the results they desire.

Effective questioning brings insight, which fuels curiosity, which cultivates wisdom. -Chip Bell

The art and science of asking questions is the source of all knowledge. -Thomas Berger

THE NORM

Many business owners recognize the symptoms of what I like to call the surface layer problems.

For example, “I’m not getting enough clients to hit my income goals.”

This creates a question within the subconscious mind that automatically asks, “How can I get more clients?”

But, that is where most people stop & they take action with the first thought that pops in their head.

For example, “I need a new marketing strategy.”

This then creates a Band-Aid answer to that problem that makes them feel like they are doing something about the problem but in reality they are just doing because habitually that’s what they have always done.

For better results, you should consciously allow that question of, “How can I get more clients?” to bring upon curiosity.

This then evokes more questions to get to the core root of the problem so that you can effectively troubleshoot.

DANIELLE’S STORY

I once had a coach when I was rebranding that surprisingly said to me one day, “If you are becoming a business coach & consultant then why not just coach yourself?”

At that moment, it blew my mind that someone I had invested a substantial amount of money in would say such a thing.

However, shortly after, it became very apparent to me that I was not asking the right questions to get to the core of what I truly needed from others & of myself.

This is when I started transitioning my questions.

TRANSITION YOUR QUESTION

We know that on a normal day we automatically ask ourselves numerous questions in our thoughts.

This is a part of the process called self-mastery. 

Subconscious questions are just questions that come without effort and it’s within our ability to consciously (with effort) transition them into deeper more meaningful questions that bring extraordinary results.

The easiest way I can explain this is you have to reverse engineer the question.

So just as the self-mastery process is reversed engineered with the result in mind first, asking good questions works the same way.

Let’s run through an example so this makes sense.

EXAMPLE 1

Let’s take the one we started with above… “How can I get more clients?” 

When we observe this question & what is happening in the circumstance we can see that this is a surface layer problem. Someone who does not consciously consider the question would automatically also assume there is something wrong with the structure and marketing plan they are using, right? Then, they would simply go looking for another business strategist to help them come up with a different plan putting a Band-Aid on what could have been a completely different problem.

When it comes to startup business owners the problem is most likely not that no clients are coming in. I can give you a million & one strategies that have worked for someone previously to bring in clients so the problem is not the marketing strategy itself.

We then must realize that “no clients” is a circumstance, a result of actions or inactions that have been taken. So we must then ask more meaningful questions around WHY there are no new clients coming in such as, “What is not working for there to be no clients coming in?”

Hmm… This brings us to another group of questions.

“Am I fully doing my part of the actions of what the strategy entails?”
“Do I have it set up properly”
“Have I been committed to this strategy long enough for it to prove beneficial?”

Ya, see these questions could then lead us to a whole other problem in itself.

If you’re not committed or the strategy has tech problems did you really need a new strategy?

No.

So the problem of having no clients was a surface problem (the result) of you being inconsistent in your marketing and/or the tech not functioning so the true problem is that the marketing strategy you have is not being confidently & consistently carried out.

So, how would you go about fixing this?

As you can see we would go even further on to ask, ” How can I self-develop to become more consistent or gain the knowledge to get the strategy to effectively work with ease?”

EXAMPLE 2

Now, let’s look at a completely different scenario.  Let’s say you are trying to connect & position yourself in front of more of your ideal clients.

Startup business owners generally ask obvious questions from a negative perspective as the problem being the main focus to discover & connect with their audience.

An example…”Any mommies tired of their depression stealing their energy and joy?” but this question only brings a negative label towards the women who say yes & they wouldn’t be confident in answering in fear of making themselves judged or center of negative pity-party attention.

So in order to transition this question, this business owner would need to think about how she could attract depressed mommies but give them a question that empowered them to “LOOK GOOD” or help someone else.

Therefore she might ask something like, “Mommies how do you create energy & joy when you are feeling depressed?”

This then gives the Moms an opportunity to help someone else but it allows the business owner to connect more with her ideal client forming a more meaningful relationship that she can discuss privately with that potential client so the potential client can open up about how she really feels without feeling like she is being judged by a whole community.

Knowledge is having the right answer. Intelligence is having the right questions. 

 

CONCLUSION

Learning to transition your questions is a must if you want to effectively communicate & discover all there is to learn.

Transitioning questions simply boils down to thinking deeper about the results that you desire and understanding how your own mind works knowing that your thoughts simply want you to just stay safe.

The more you know about self-mastery, you then can consciously think about what your subconscious mind has put before you as a signal to look into it as if it were a stoplight that has turned yellow.

Then you can do the work to figure out what the true meaning of the question originated from.
