Powerful Questions to Ask Yourself

Having intentional check-in meetings with yourself can be a powerful tool to bring you one step closer to your goal — whatever that may be. Here are some questions to ask yourself that may improve the efficiency of those meetings:

1. What matters most to me right now?

This grounds you in your current priorities. Are you focusing on what truly aligns with your values, or are you simply reacting to what’s urgent?

2. How am I really feeling — physically, emotionally, and mentally?

Too often we push through discomfort or stress without acknowledging its impact. Tune in and listen to what your body and mind are trying to tell you.

3. What have I been avoiding, and why?

Avoidance is often a signpost pointing to something that needs your attention. It may be fear, overwhelm, or simply a lack of clarity. Identifying it is the first step toward action.

4. What’s one small thing I can do today to care for myself?

Self-care doesn’t have to be grand. A walk, a glass of water, a quiet moment — these micro-acts of care build self-respect and resilience over time.

5. Is how I'm spending my time reflective of my priorities?

Your calendar doesn’t lie. Does your schedule reflect what you say matters most — or is it filled with obligations that drain you? Realignment starts with awareness.

6. What am I proud of this week?

Acknowledging your wins — no matter how small — builds confidence and motivation. Celebrate yourself. You're doing more than you think.

Final Thoughts

You are not selfish for putting yourself on your own calendar — you are strategic. A thriving woman fuels thriving families, communities, and businesses. You don’t have to wait for burnout or breakdown to pause and reflect. Start with these questions, make space for your own check-ins, and lead your life with intention.

After all, you are the most important project you’ll ever work on.
