These questions make for enriching dinner table conversation, but they can be equally illuminating if you simply ask them of yourself. I stumbled onto the idea of asking big questions because I needed them myself. They drive our growth, and we can come back to them year after year.

1. When  have you really listened to someone else? What happen when you did?
2. When did  you last have feel truly heard and understood?
3. Is it hard for you to listen to perspective that are different from yours?
