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.

2. Is there something in your life you had wish you had sacrificed? What kept you from doing so?
3. Was there ever a time you regretted making a sacrifice?
