It’s an old technique but when did you last use it? If you want to test whether your time is being well spent, then ask “why?” 5 times. You will soon get down to whether something is adding value or not. So perhaps it’s something like….
- Why are you on-line now?
- Why are you reading this? (I may lose some of you at this point)
- Why are you interested in (for example) improving your effectiveness?
- Why is that important?
- Why?
Why not try it a couple of times today and see if you do something different?
