TheFoggBlogg: 5 Questions that Create "Transformation"

from The 90-Day Challenge

The core of The 90-Day Challenge (by which I mean the #1 thing that makes it work as a results-getting process) is the "Action&Accountability Process." This is a Monday through Friday "Call Partnership" where participants are matched up with a partner and they do a 15 to 20 minute call with each other every day.

We alternate who asks and answers the prepared set of 16 questions every other day. So, on Monday, I'll ask you the questions and listen to your answers. Tuesday, you'll ask me, and so on. Weekends off for good behavior. <smile>

The questions are designed in a very specific way to engage both the Rational/Analytical and Creative/Intuitive aspects of your mind (left brain/right brain, the Head & the Heart, conscious & subconscious).

What this does is: 1.) Starts out by setting a positive agenda. 2.) Builds creative energy, rather than drains it by focusing on "the problem" (as Einstein noted, "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."). 3.) Allows both sides of our mind to do the job they were naturally intended for (and there's much more to say about that!).

One purpose of The 90-Day Challenge is to "Make Sure You GET the Goals You Set." So, the Action&Accountability Process questions focus on the person's goal. Here's how that goes: (Obviously, questions 1 - 6 came before. Not so obvious, there are more questions after whic deal what what you are committed to dong today & what support you need to do that successfully.)

_____________________________

7. On a scale of 1 to 10 (with 10 being "Couldn't be better!"): How would you rate your success with your goal as of today?

The "goal" of this question is to have people become increasingly aware that no matter where they are in their process... no matter if they're producing the results in terms of numbers or dollars or whatevers... it's all part of the process and even failures are positive accomplishments. When you consistently answer an enthusiastic "10" you know you're there.

8. What's one thing you're doing with your goal that's working... that's really "right"?

Focusing on "What's right... What's working..." takes the attention off the problem/What's wrong and focuses on the positive & productive thoughts & actions that can be leveraged and expanded to achieve more & better results. It builds, rather than drains creative energy. "Thoughts are things." What's best to be focused on?

9. What makes that work so well?

Asking this question opens up the door to understanding "why" what's right IS right, what makes it work. Without this question doing what's right again & again (think "duplicate") is more a matter of luck. Knowledge is NOT power. Understanding is. That's creates lasting wisdom. And, you can feel your energy growing when you give yourself fully to this question.

10. What would your goal be like if it was ideal...?

This is the visionary question. It taps directly into the intuition, imagination & inspiration. It requires a lot of creative energy to work with your dreams without being held back by self-imposed limitations (and the first two questions provide that building energy). Now, you're operating in the realm of "What you don't know you don't know." This is all about what's possible for you to achieve.

11. What's missing, which if it were in place would have your project be ideal?

This is essentially a "What's wrong?" question, but it comes at a stage in the process where you have the energy to deal with it in a positive manner. It's serving the solution and not the problem. Can you "see" and sense the difference? This question also outlines the "holes" in your vision, so you and Creation (more to say about this one, too) know what needs to become manifest to bring about the ideal. Makes sure you get the proper shaped pegs for holes.

12. What will it take for you to have your ideal become real?

In short (and it's not, really), this is the question that leads you to action— more often than not "Inspired Action," because it's born of Vision and not mired-down in fixing the problem. One takes you backwards the other forwards. Can you sense that...? Can you feel the difference...?

So, that's a "taste" (more like a 5 course meal) of what and why I call what we're doing a "Transformational Technology." This is a VERY different way of approaching Goal-Getting that involves both inner and outer actions, giving you a "new & improved" access to your creative energy and, for you fans of The Secret, puts the Law Of Attraction into positive, powerful, productive action.
