Feeling Lost? Here’s 7 Questions You Should Ask Yourself

I'm sharing seven life-changing questions that have reshaped my understanding of myself and the world around me.

Over the last decade, I've collected questions that cut through the noise and challenge the status quo. These are the ones that persist, the queries that disrupt routine thinking and invite profound introspection.

You'll see how the art of questioning can unveil new perspectives, scrub away self-limiting beliefs, and shatter the assumptions that have held you back.

Whether you're looking to recalibrate your priorities or ignite a deeper change, these questions are your starting point.

5th one is my favorite "Stop gathering more information & start acting on the information you already have".

[harshSharmaaji]

Just in case I need a quick recap in the future: -
1. If I repeated this day for 100 days, would my life be better or worse?
2. If someone observed my actions for a week, what would they say my priorities are?
3. If I were the main character in a movie, what would the audience be screaming at me? (⭐)
4. What are the boat anchors of my life? (people, behaviors, things that hold you back from progress)
5. Am I allowing more information to get in the way of more action?
6. What lie have I repeated to myself so many times that it feels like the truth?
7. If I knew I would die in 10 years, what would I do today?

#5 is gold. Take action. Experiment even if there is ambiguity.

Amazing questions which resonate with me so much

Woow this video helped me realize a lot of things! Thanks Sahil!

[moniqueschmidt]

The last question really made me take a pause. It is so much more impactful thinking in the 10 year time frame (than the 1 day or 1 year time frame as Sahil also critiques). Thanks for sharing Sahil. I always get so much from your videos. Your previous video about how you are levelling up your next 365 days was super impressive and inspiring.

This channel is super underrated. This is the self help stuff we want.

Love this Sahil! Number 6 is definitely my favorite. Pressing in to that this week to expose the lies in my internal dialogue and pursue the truth - thanks brother!

[swarnaanooroop]

So insightful. Thank you, Sahil.

Will always be your number 1 fan.

I find question 2 and 3 particularly interesting. I bet recording oneself as one goes through the day and then reviewing the footage would be an awesome tool to help find the answers to these questions. This might be tremendously useful aswell if one wants to work on the way they behave or speak, though I doubt my friends would be comfortable with me recording our interactions.

Great content, thank you for helping us find our path!

Excellent content Sahil - keep up the great work, love the discipline in posting daily. Keenly following from Australia - cheers

Been loving your YouTube content! Always practical and actionable when most advice is vague and philosophical. Also, what brand of T-Shirt is that?

[GauravDeo]

Sahil, do you journal? If yes do you mind sharing some prompts with us ?
