Questions are the answer
Does everyone ask themselves questions? That is of course a question in itself and some people will feel this page is not for them, they don't question themselves so choosing the questions is irrelevant. I can respect that point of view but I do disagree with it. In practice everyone asks themselves questions, every time they have a doubt, every time they make a decision, every time they face a dilemma, and we all face them. But for some people it doesn't feel as if they are asking a question and I would invite those of that persuasion to look behind their thinking process to see if there are questions underlying their decisions, their choices and, more importantly, to establish if those questions are the best ones that they can ask.
If our lives are underpinned by inadequate questions then our dissatisfaction with life is likely to be greater. Someone who operates on the underlying question of 'How can I avoid this feeling?' is less likely to move on that someone who asks 'What is this feeling and how can I best deal with it?' The first person may spend a lifetime not looking at something that affects their everyday life negatively, the second person may give it a name, decide on a strategy and be able, at least in part, to move on.
Most people who have come to this website will be in the second category so for you I have listed below some of the great questions that can help you steer a more pleasing and satisfying path through life. They are written in the first person as that makes them more available. There are well over 100 so you have plenty of choice.
