Awaken the Wonder Inside—Become A Master Asker

Best Seller TV, the only show dedicated to covering today’s best-selling business books on C-Suite TV,  is kicking off the new year by announcing a new episode featuring Mark Victor Hansen and Crystal Dwyer Hansen, authors of Ask! The Bridge From Your Dreams To Your Destiny.

The book is a guide to awaken the inate ability of every human being to ask questions. While kids are naturally inquisitive, Crystal says that “Over time, just through basic life rejections, people get shot down. That spirit of asking gets crushed out of them.” They say that asking is truly the only thing that has the ability to reveal what’s hidden in our lives and “that is powerful.”

Learning the magic of asking can be achieved by three equally important channels: ask yourself, ask others, ask God. The book is chock-full of personal anecdotes and tidbits capable of re-instilling our natural curiosity to ask questions. The genesis of the book, which is extremely relevant, is to go back to a time in our lives where we were unafraid to ask for everything we wanted.  “It’s important for each of us to become master askers,” the Hansens said. That’s the main reason they wanted to bring this particular message to the world.

Mark Victor Hansen has authored many books, including the world-famous “Chicken Soup for the Soul” series. However, this is the first book he’s ever co-authored with his wife, Crystal Dwyer Hansen, a health and wellness author and entrepreneur in her own right. The Hansens were unsure about how their first foray into co-authoring would go, but according to Crystal, “It sort of fell into place kind of magically.” They discussed the framework of the book collectively, then each fell into their respective lanes of expertise, making collaboration a seamless process.

While everyone faces adversity, Mark Victor offers some sage advice, originated in his own hardship, including bankruptcy. He added, “I’ve always taken adversity and turn it into an advantage.” Out of this adversity, everyone can learn how to ask.

During the interview, they also covered the six destinies everyone has, a personal anecdote about their young grandson that directly correlates to the book’s themes, and a reminder that “one question can pivot your entire career.”

 

All episodes of Best Seller TV air on C-Suite TV and are hosted by TV personality, Taryn Winter Brill.

Best-selling author, speaker, and former Fortune 100 CMO Jeffrey Hayzlett created Best Seller TV to give top-tier business authors a forum for sharing thought-provoking insights, in-depth business analysis, and their compelling personal narratives.

“I’ve known Mark Victor for a number of years, and now his wife Crystal, and I can’t think of better people to kick off the new year with,” Hayzlett said. “They bring incredible insights as a result of their travels, speaking to people from all walks of life, and their life experiences. I’m positive our audience will find much needed inspiration in this interview, especially during these difficult times we’re experiencing.”
