50 Questions That Will Free Your Mind (written by: Marc Chernoff)


"These questions have no right or wrong answers. Because sometimes asking the right questions is the answer.

1. How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

2. Which is worse, failing or never trying?

3. If life is so short, why do we do so many things we don’t like and like so many things we don’t do?

4. When it’s all said and done, will you have said more than you’ve done?

5. What is the one thing you’d most like to change about the world?

6. If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?

7. Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?

8. If the average human life span was 40 years, how would you live your life differently?

9. To what degree have you actually controlled the course your life has taken?

10. Are you more worried about doing things right, or doing the right things? (to be continued)

Any answers come to mind?

2. Which is worse, failing or never trying?
It really depends what it is, failing a parachute jump means death so it is possible to argue that it is better not trying.

1. How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?

At an earlier time I'd divide by 2; now, after the illness, it's my present age minus 10-15 depending on the day.

Life is not so short, you just can compress it by not enjoying the moment.
