The right answers

Come from asking the right questions. The right questions are the ones that ask what you really want to know. Seems obvious. Is obvious. But let's look at an example:
Do I want the red dress or the blue dress? That question is meaningless because if I knew, I wouldn't need to ask the question. Maybe the real thing I want to know is: which dress makes me look thinner (aka hotter)? Better question. It's asking what I really want to know. So the question is: what do you really want to know? And maybe there is another question that will help you find out.
