Am I being a superior asshole?

​Have you been asking questions but things don't seem to be changing in the way you'd hoped?

What sort of questions are you asking? Do they sound like this “What do you know about X?” or “What's it going to take for people to get that I know all about X and recognise my worth?”

Are these really questions?

Or are they conclusions with question marks attached?

In other words, you've decided what you want (to tell people about X) and that without people listening to you about X that you have no worth.

So if you're not getting the change you'd truly like, check your questions. Ask “Is this a question, or is it a statement with a question mark attached?”  (also known as "Am I being a superior asshole?")

Then ask a real question.
