Questions? Questions? Questions?

One of the best time management techniques is 'Asking the right questions'.

• Ask questions to make sure you are on track. Don't assume anything.
• Don't ask negative questions or questions that are closed-ended.
  
• Ask questions that requires the person answering to give more than single-worded answers. For example: Can you provide more details? Can you give me an example as to how you arrive at that conclusion?

Some thought-provoking questions:

• Ask WHY (and you may eliminate it)
• Ask WHERE (and you may find a better place for it)
• Ask WHEN (and you may find a better schedule)
• Ask WHO (and you may a more appropriate person)
• Ask WHAT (and you may avoid working on a wrong problem)
• Ask HOW (and you may find a better solution)
