Identifying your Core Question

Ask yourself the following questions in order to discover and transform the Core
Question(s) that currently drive the focus of your life.

What is your core focus in life?

What do you consistently focus on? What question do you ask most often based on this focus? What is your Core Question? *

What are the most powerful and driving beliefs that cause you to consistently ask this question?

What positive and empowering effects do you believe came about by constantly focusing on this question? If you achieve the "object" of your focus what will happen? How will you feel? What will you get? How will others be impacted? Ultimately what will you experience if you achieve this? *

What are the most powerful and driving beliefs that cause you to consistently ask this question?

What disempowering/ painful consequences do you believe would occur if you did not fulfill the object of your focus (i.e., if your question was, "How can I make this person happy?" What would you ultimately feel if you didn't make this person happy? What would it cost you? How would others be impacted?) Ultimately, what would it mean if you failed to achieve this? What would you lose? *

This pattern tends to be started by an Extreme Emotional Reference from the past. What is your Pain Generator? *

What is the downside of your old Core Question? What will it ultimately cost you? *

What needs were you trying to fulfill through your old Core Question? *

What is a question that would give you what you need, but at the same time, allow you to preserve the initial positive intent behind your old Core Question? *

Example: If your old question was, "'What can I do to make people like me? "—what is a question that will still allow you to respond to the needs of others and touch their lives in a positive way, yet remove you from being constantly at the mercy of other people's "temporary" impressions?

What are the benefits your new empowering question would provide you today and for the rest of your life? *

How does your new question meet your Human Needs at a deeper level? *

Ask yourself right now, “How does it feel?” *

What is the upside of your old Core Question? *

What needs were you trying to fulfill through your old Core Question? *

What do you need to give yourself that you've been pursuing through this question? *

What is your new empowering Core Question - one that fulfils your needs and leads your life in the direction you desire and deserve? *

A NEW SET OF CORE QUESTIONS MIGHT BE:
How can I appreciate myself even more in this moment?
What is the best thing I can do right now to support myself and others?

Are there any downsides to this new empowering question? If so, change it! *

What experiences—references—do you already have that support you in knowing this new question is right for you? *
