“There are no right answers to wrong questions.”–Ursula K. Le Guin

 错误的问题是得不到正确的结果的

你的结果: 学会如何问关键的问题来帮助你立即改善你的结果

　　在30天敏捷结果：开篇中说到接下来我们将进行敏捷结果练习，前一篇学习了19：你在为谁做事？，今天我们要进行Getting Result练习的第20天：好的问题可以获得好的结果（Day 20 — Ask Better Questions, Get Better Results）

　　问问题是一个需要自己不断发生的事情，你问的越好对你来说可以获得更多。通过改善你问自己的问题，你可以改善你生活中不同热点区域的生活质量。

为什么要问问题

问对问题可以帮助我们平衡、聚焦，做出更好的决策，更有效地进行优先级排定：

• 问对问题=好的回答
  不管这个问题是你进行自我对话还是会议讨论，问对问题都是非常重要的。如果把问问题和回答问题作为一个流程来看，那么你想获得好的回答则一定需要提出好的问题。就像我们经常逛技术论坛一样，你发帖求助的回答率与你提出的问题以及提问方式有关。
• 问题=关注点
  通过改变你的问题可以改变我们的关注点，这可以让我们快速的切换视角。例如，加入你要做一个项目，你可能会问“我有什么资源来做这个项目”，如果你感觉资源不够时你就会消极；但是如果你换一种问题“如果没有资源、时间限制我会如何做这个项目？”那么你会想办法去解决资源问题。
• 问题=内心交流
  通过问题进行自我沟通，可以让自己获得内心的更多力量。例如，我们在做一件事情之前，问问自己“为什么”要做，找出激励自己的情感式动力，这会让自己实现结果更有效，这也是“为什么”三个字带来的力量。
• 问题=机会
  我们在做产品架构时会有一个市场需求文档模板，这里首先就是列出市场问题，后面就会跟着市场机会，通过问题提出解决方案可能就会创造出很多机会。

关于问题的谚语

1. “A child can ask questions that a wise man cannot answer.”—Unknown
2. “A prudent question is one-half of wisdom.” – Francis Bacon
3. “An answer is always a form of death.”—John Fowles
4. “It is not every question that deserves an answer.” — Publilius Syrus
5. “No question is so difficult to answer as that to which the answer is obvious.” — Karl Otto von Schonhausen Bismarck
6. “Quality questions create a quality life. Successful people ask better questions, and as a result, they get better answers.” — Anthony Robbins
7. “Questions are never indiscreet. Answers sometimes are.” – Publilius Syrus
8. “The man who questions opinion is wise; the man who quarrels with fact is a fool.”–Frank A Garbutt
9. “The only questions that really matter are the ones you ask yourself.” –Ursula K. LeGuin
10. “The uncreative mind can spot wrong answers, but it takes a very creative mind to spot wrong questions.” —Antony Jay
11. “We learn more by looking for the answer to a question and not finding it than we do from learning the answer itself.”—Lloyd Alexander
12. “When we have arrived at the question, the answer is already near.”–Ralph Waldo Emerson
13. “You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers. You can tell whether a man is wise by his questions”.—Naguib Mahfouz

改善结果的一些问题

　　我曾经也说过，一个人自我成长最简单的就是问自己一些问题，在个人管理：从昨天的一个设计评审来谈如何与人交流你的设计思路、个人管理：写书之前应该回答的几个问题、30天敏捷结果（19）：你在为谁做事？、30天敏捷生活（6）： 你的生活目标是什么？中都提出了很多问题。下面罗列一些问题的分类和示例，我相信对你应该会有所帮助：

　　用上面的表格作为找出好问题的开始，但是找出好问题的要点是这些问题必须对你起作用，你需要持续的给你的问题库中补充对你有用的问题（如果你不知道对生活的问题，可以参考本篇后面附上的生活自问列表）。你会发现，有些简单的问题可以让你远离沮丧去找出方案，具有创造力，并且能够找出下一步要做的事情。

本次练习要做的

1. 找出一个可以帮助你获得更好结果的一个自问的问题
2. 找出一个对你不起作用的问题，换一个更有效的问题来改善自己的结果
