Question of the Day
Raising the Question
Question of the Day 30 Day Challenge
Why should we use a question of the day? It is estimated that we ask ourselves around 60,000 questions a day. This is quite an impressive figure until you realize that 95% of those questions are the very same questions we asked ourselves yesterday, and the day before that, and the day before that.
The Question of the Day ’30 day challenge’ dares you to break that pattern and make a conscious decision to challenge your mind and ask yourself at least one fresh new question each day.
Raising the question offers you a question of the day. All you need to do is ask yourself the question and reply with a response in the comments section of that question. The process of answering the question in writing ensures that you really get to take in the question and let it form new pathways in your mind as you respond.
It’s always fun to see what other people have replied to the same question as well, but no cheating, make sure you place your response before browsing through other peoples.
DO YOU ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE? If so, enter your email address on the right. This will send a fresh question to your inbox every day and give you a gentle reminder to keep you on track.
GOOD LUCK.

Are you an astronaut or an astronomer?
The big question of the day: Are you an astronaut or an astronomer?
Indiana Jones explained the difference between an astronaut or an astronomer. Astronomers observe the stars around them from a place of absolute safely, but astronauts take massive risks to go and get right amongst them. Are you an astronaut or an astronomer, a go-getter or just an observer?
If you are an astronaut, a go-getter, leave a comment in this post. If you wish to share an example, please do so, if not, just leave you name to prove your point.
If you are an astronomer, you will read this post and then move on without leaving anything of real value behind. You will brush past tike a light breeze and no-one will be any the wiser that you were here.
Which one do you really want to be?? Leave your mark here if you dare!

When did you last win a prize?
Every now and then we all get that little feeling called pride, where we came out on top, beat the odds, or simple had the luck fall our way. Do you remember how it felt to have that strut in your step, even just for a little while. At the same time you were trying not to gloat in front of the others, or perhaps making it look like it was no big deal, when on the inside your head you were doing a little victory dance and rubbing it in their faces. (maybe thats just me).
What did you win? Who did you beat? Were you expected to win or was it one of those classic stories where the underdog comes through at the last minute to win the prize and steal the girl?
