Jim Katsoulis contrasts problem-oriented self-questions (e.g., "What is wrong with me?", "Why can't I follow a plan?") with solution-oriented questions (e.g., "How can I lose weight in the easiest way possible?", "How can I make weight loss more fun?"). He argues that shifting to solution-oriented questioning transforms motivation and behavior, making weight loss easier and more automatic.
