Stop Using AI Like Google, Start Using It to Change Your Life with Geoff Woods

Companion to the MaxLife episode with Geoff Woods

Geoff Woods drove billions in value with one skill, asking better questions. Here you'll run his method on yourself: write the real question, then interview yourself toward the answer.

▶ Watch the full episode with Geoff Woods for deeper context on how to approach these questions
01

Where You Feel Stuck

Pick the part of your life or work where you feel most stuck right now. In one plain sentence, say what's actually going on there.

02

Write The Real Question

Geoff says a strong question passes three tests: it matters to you, it's simple, and it makes you go 'hmm, I don't know.' Take your stuck area and write a question about it. Then rewrite it bigger and braver a few times until you land on one you honestly can't answer yet. Write that final question.

The question I can't answer yet is: how do I ___?
03

Interview Yourself

Geoff has AI act like a coach and grill him with follow-ups he'd never ask himself. Do that on paper. Write three follow-up questions a sharp coach would fire back at your question above, then answer the one that makes you most uncomfortable.

04

Glass Or Rubber

Geoff says most of what's on your plate is rubber: it bounces if dropped. A few things are glass: they shatter. Of everything you're juggling, which one or two are the glass that drives almost all the result?

The thing I keep avoidingA relationship I'm neglectingOne key decisionMy healthThe work only I can doSomething I haven't named yet
05

Commit, Then Get Brave

Geoff learned you don't get the confidence first. You make the commitment first, then the courage and the skill follow. What's one thing you'll commit to this week, before you feel ready, that acts on the question you wrote?

Geoff's whole point is that the quality of your life follows the quality of your questions. You just wrote one that stopped you, and you pulled answers out of yourself with sharper follow-ups. Carry the question this week and keep digging until the real answer shows up.
