As a doctor, what's the smartest question you have ever been asked?
I am not a doctor
As a therapist, what's the smartest question you have ever been asked?
You do not make it clear, but I am assuming you mean from a client.I have been asked many good and smart questions by clients, and for all of them I don't have an immediate answer.How do I feel more confident?How do I feel more in control of my life?Why can't I find a life partner?How can I feel less depressed?How can I feel less anxious?I need help with not caring what people say about me.Often clients will be asking you the questions, but it will be in the context of trying to give the therapist an idea of what they are struggling with and to give the treatment some kind of focus.At other times, clients can come in and ask these questions and then demand some magical formulae or solution to there problem. They will want the therapist to spit out a list of instructions or homework they can follow to achieve their goal.In couples therapy partners will ask me, so how do we become better communicators. This is usually at the beginning of a session or sadly, when they have spent the whole session blaming and putting down each other.My answers usually takes different forms depending on that particular client or couple and their constellation of internal object relations.In essence, I try and tell them by various means that in order to fix something, we first need to see what and how it got broken in the first place. So just as an example, I might say, well before we figure out how not to care, we first need to figure out, why you care so much.Clients who pressure the therapist for change, do not want to focus on how they got that way in the first place, they just want to race forward, they are wanting help to get over a fence but in order to do that you first got to look at what is on their side of the fence.I believe I would be doing a disservice to my clients by not giving them the opportunity to govern themselves. By giving them advice I am in effect taking away their ability to learn and decide what they want to do about their depression, anxiety, or over caring attitude. I may be in fact acting out and becoming the next controlling, domineering, bullying person in change of their life. The next person, they need to please and report to every week with their progress report.Hope this is helpful

What are the smartest questions that you have heard?
Heterological word is one that does not describe itselfDoes "heterological" describe itself?Hold on, you are gonna explode your mind in next 45 seconds :pAn example of a heterological word is "verb ," which is not a verb (as opposed to "noun," which is itself a noun).Another example is "long," which is not a long word (as opposed to "short," which is a short word).So is "heterological" a heterological word?If it were a word that didn't describe itself, then it would describe itself; but if it did describe itself, then it would not be a word that described itself..! XDPerhaps…| This still remains a paradox |

What is the smartest question ever that you have been asked by a kid?
I don't know whether it is the smartest or not...but it changed my life.Back then I was a very heterodox kid...supporting feminism, abortion (I still do), LGBT, etc. until this incident happened.I was in my coaching class (I was in class 9 then), and we were talking about random things. Among that, the topic of 'modern women' came out. As usual, I was arguing that women should work, they should have the freedom to do whatever they want with their life, etc. My friends, being brought up in orthodox families, went on arguing that these are bad, etc. A friend of mine, who was 'spiritual', was sitting on his own.The topic reached the situation where modern mothers do not feed their children breastmilk because their figure will become bad. I said that they have the Right to choose what to do, and that the only duty of mother was to feed her child properly. If that can be achieved with external milk, why need of worsening the figure? To this, suddenly my spiritual friend, asked "Mothers are married to their husbands. Why do they, in spite of this, have to flaunt their body in front of others? Can't they be satisfied with their husband's appreciation? Why the need to show their breasts to other men?". To this, I remained dumb. My logic went shut.I, after coming back home, started re-thinking my philosophy. I tried my best to keep myself modern and heterodox, but I failed. I could not come up with any proper logic further. "Let them be however they want...it is their own life"...this logic started becoming 'selfish' to me.At last, after many years of reasoning, I have turned totally orthodox, trying to reason why people are heterodox.P.S. - I do not go to women saying that they should become orthodox. I keep it to myself.
What is the smartest question you’ve had, but been too scared to ask?
There is no smart question(unless you referring to be sarcasm which not a question but a psychological assault), since “question” is an act of inquiry to satisfy our inquisitive brain to learn things thats essential to our maturity development process. But I also have a question that I hesitate to ask that may pose a threat to my reality but Im to afraid to mention here. Sorry if I cant answer your question and you're welcome if you saw the elusive answer to ur question.
What's the smartest decision you ever made?

What are some of the smartest and trickiest interview questions you have ever faced or heard?
In an interview with the Department of Defense (specifically the U.S. Navy), I was asked: As a contract specialist, you'd be negotiating and buying weapons for the United States that potentially could kill innocent lives in times of war. How do you feel about that?At first, I hesitated. I thought, "This is a trick question. They want to involve politics in this. What should I say?"In the end, I gave them the truth: I don't feel good about that AT ALL. I understand in times of war that there is death on both sides, soldiers and civilians alike. Am I ok with that? No, absolutely not, but that doesn't mean I don't understand the consequences of war.I left the interview thinking I completely bombed it because of that question. I felt like my answer was too "soft" for the DoD. I got the job.Later, one of my coworkers who was at my interview told me that the purpose of that question was to weed out any "psycho" applicants, those people who would have given an answer that would make you think twice about giving them the power to buy weapons for the United States Navy. He told me: "You were one of the 'normal' ones."
