The 5 Question Rule
A Guide to Not Being Wrong, But Not Being Right Either
Are you tired of being right all the time? Do you want to add a dash of uncertainty to your daily life? Look no further than the 5 Question Rule!
Here's how it works:
- Ask 5 questions before answering.
- Make sure they're good questions. Not "What's for lunch?" or "Can I borrow your stapler?"
- Take your time. Don't just blurt out answers like a know-it-all.
- Use a questioning tone. It's okay to sound unsure.
- Repeat yourself. Because, you know, maybe you were right, but maybe not.
Example:
- Q: "Will the chicken or the egg come first?"
- A: "Hmm, well, I think it's a chicken-and-egg sort of situation."
- Q: "But which one do you think?"
- A: "I'm not entirely sure, but I'm leaning towards... both."
And that's it! Simple, yet profound. Try it out and see how it adds a little uncertainty to your life.
