Some questions can’t be answered until we’ve answered others.
Answering “Where are we going?” and “Where are we now?” inform the answer to “Are we there yet?”
Answering “What is the scope?” and “What are the available resources?” inform the answer to “How long will this take?”
Answering “What’s it for?” and “Who’s it for?” inform the answer to “What does success look and feel like?”
Answering “What are the standards and expectations?” informs the answer to “Is this any good?”
If you’re stumped to answer a question, it might be because the answer requires you to first ask and answer another question.
