For example: What is your goal?
This is a common question but it may not get you a clear answer.
So you could try: What is your exact goal?
By adding the word ‘exact’ you have made it clear you want an ‘exact’ answer.
Or you could try: I want to know (and in your own words) your exact goal for this project and what it would mean for you to achieve this goal?
Because (although this is ‘art’ – no right or wrong answer), in the previous step by:
- Adding
- Revising
- Fine tuning
You’re more likely to receive the answer that brings you closer to the solution.
And the wording of questions?
