You'll never make a decision the same way again.
Should I take this job? Buy this house? Marry this person? We ask questions every day about the choices we face. But are we asking the most important question of all? In Ask It, Andy Stanley identifies the one question that makes it easy to determine the answer to all other questions. You'll learn how to make decisions with confidence simply by applying the question that brings clarity to life's most challenging decisions.

Would you listen to Ask It again? Why?
Yes, and I have listened to it twice now because it is a fantastic book that gives a great perspective on how to approach decision making in all aspects on life.Which scene was your favorite?
I really liked every bit of the book and all of the different scenarios.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Any additional comments?
I felt it started a bit slow with too many teases about what the question is, but after that it was excellent and has become one of my favorites.Wish I would have read this in my teens...

That said, I think most people need to read something like this because of how many poor choices people make throughout their lives.
He also spends too much time leading you on with multiple cliff-hangers to the 'big-question'. I get it in todays world of instant gratification this makes sense as it keeps you coming back to the book and is helpful for the type of person who would read this book. But for some people its not necessary (go to the end and I'll have it there).
I think he spends a bit too much time on behaving wisely when it comes to sex or marriage, but I get it there's a huge swath of society that is being hurt by poor decisions in those areas and why he would want to spend time there.
He doesn't do a great job explaining how to make good business choices (seek wise counsel is the answer).
He also doesn't do any explaining on how to make complicated decisions when it comes to God requesting or bringing you to a path that is unwise from a worldly standpoint and from every conceivable answer but God has a plan anyways; that's where I'm at and this book wasn't all that helpful in that regard.
That said, I don't have any (many?) regrets and Andy speaks a lot about regrets due to poor decisions that could have been avoided by wise choice making. I imagine a lot of people make poor choices and would benefit greatly from this book.
He has 5 questions in his extended universe of books/teachings.
1) “Why am I doing this?”
2) “What story do I want to tell?”
3) “Is there a tension that deserves my attention?”
4) “What is the wise thing to do?” (not what is the right thing to do)
5) “What does love require of me?”
And finally, the question(s) he poses in his book: "Ask It"
“In light of my past experience, what is the wise thing for me to do? In light of my current circumstances and state of mind, what is the wise thing for me to do? In light of my future hopes and dreams, what is the wise thing for me to do?”
Or more succinctly:
“In light of my past experience, in light of my current circumstances and state of mind, and my future hopes and dreams, what is the wise thing for me to do?”
I hope this helps, I hate to give a book less than 5 stars, but it's the way I feel about the book and I also think it is the most wise rating I can give it based upon my experiences and mindset. Thanks!
Great for most, not for me, make wise choices
