This was such a great essay, Avthar! I love the idea of meta questions. So often we rush to answer someone's question, instead of taking a step back and trying to dig a bit deeper on why they might be asking the question or what their ideal outcome is.

Becoming curious, especially in conversation, is such a life-hack.

This is a lesson I'll carry forward with me in future conversations and try to use daily (especially in negotiations or conflict resolution).

Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much Tommy! Glad the concept of meta questions resonated with you. Love your observation about taking time to be curious vs rushing to answer.
