2. If you couldn’t fail, what would you do?

3. If you were forced to start over again, what would you do?

Many people find themselves in situations where they have fallen into a situation where they are not doing as they wish they were. They go to work because they have to, not enjoying a single day of it. If you started over again would you take advantage of the new beginning or would you go back to where you are? What would you do?

4. If money wasn’t an issue, what would you do?

Many people have dreams they wish to pursue but they never attempt to move forward with the dreams because they cannot afford to get started. Think of what you would love to do if you had the money to do it. This can be anything.

5. What is your biggest dream?

If you have a big dream, what is it? There must be something you really want to do that you dream about. Think about this one thing and focus on it.

6. What is the biggest barrier stopping you from following your dream?

Name all of the things that have caused you to not follow your big dreams. These things could be people who do not support you, money, fears, and other things. There are many different types of barriers which can be overcome. You might not see opportunity or success with your dreams or you may fear that people would make fun of you. You might not even be skilled and lack talent. These could be barriers causing you not to move forward.

7. What passion are you afraid of owning or admitting?

Many people have dreams and passions they are afraid to talk about, out of fear of being made fun of by other people. You might think your passion is silly to other people. What is this one thing?

8. As a child, what did you really want to be?

Did you have dreams of becoming someone as a child and it didn’t turn out quite as expected? Do you still wonder what it would have been like if you had followed your dreams as a child? If you had the opportunity, would you follow this dream today?

9. If you knew you were going to die in the near future, what would you regret not doing?

Many people have regrets when they realize they are going to die real soon. It is often too late for many people to go back and change the things they missed out on. They would have lived their lives completely differently if they had the chance. If a doctor told you that you didn’t have any time left but a few weeks, then what would your regrets be? What would you want to do before your time was up?
