Over at Austin Kleon’s blog he had a post called 7 questions I ask myself. The questions are:

1. What was the best thing that happened yesterday?

2. Will this enlarge or diminish me?

3. What would it look like to be done for the day?

4. What did you really want to say?

5. What’s the matter?

6. Would I do it tomorrow?

7. And then what?

I don’t think you have to ask yourself these questions every day or in every situation. Instead, use them in the right context. For example, whenever I am faced with doing something difficult, I ask myself #2. Whenever I am blogging, I keep question #4 in mind. If you are aiming for a goal, it’s good to keep #7 in mind before you achieve it.

If those questions appeal to you, go check out his post. He provides more insight into each of the questions that you’ll benefit from if you ask them of yourself this week.
