⚡ Fueler Weekly 95: How to Ask Useful Questions?
Be specific about the information you're looking to obtain.
Asking useful questions is a skill, and it requires practice.
Inexperienced or naive questions sound like this:
"Hello! [Insert life story.] What should I do?"
Or this:
"I'm thinking about [action]. What do you think?"
Questions like these make a few critical mistakes:
They don't include the context necessary for the recipient to answer the question.
They don't respect the recipient's time, energy, attention, or competing demands.
They implicitly transfer responsibility for the End Result from the questioner to the recipient.
As a result, questions like these go unanswered due to Friction - answering them would take too much effort, so the recipient doesn't bother.
If you want useful answers, learn to ask better questions.
