Simply start typing words into a search engine and answers appear.
Nowadays, having to formulate, let alone ask, a question is seldom a prerequisite to accessing answers. So it’s easy to undervalue the importance of asking a thoughtful question and how it shapes the answers, whether to your search query or another problem you’re working to solve as an innovator.
The question you ask is the problem you solve.
While it may only sometimes be a prerequisite to accessing answers, don’t skip the influential step of formulating and asking a question. Like other skills, you become better with practice. By improving your question formulation skills, you’ll also improve your problem solving skills.
