105 questions that will contribute to small changes

I was mulling over the weekend about what to publish this week’s #thinkhatkewithtgv. Somehow, I was inspired by the power of small changes and started jotting down questions that will help us reflect and may pave the way to new beginnings.

Sharing the list of questions that can be used by anyone to pause and reflect and come up with an action plan to get better.

Not all questions may be applicable to all. My suggestion is to go through the list once and answer yourself. There is no need to share your responses here :).
