Wandering along the suggestion of topics in Hacker Public Radio, we come to this: how to obtain the answer to something that I don’t even know how to ask?
My opinion is: you can’t get an answer without the desire, be it represented by a question or a quest.
So, how to pose the correct question? There are a few steps!
1st,
interest
. Get motivated to know, even if you don’t know exactly what you want specifically.
2nd: be open to deconstruction. To learn is to recognize you didn’t know before (self-pride has to give place for learning). And when confronted with the new, things you thought you knew — even ones you relied on before — may need to be now rejected, if incompatible with the truth you only now receive.
3rd: when the barriers are down, it’s possible to
study
the theme. Because, at the moment, you don’t know what you don’t know; while one ignores something, he’s only ignorant. One have to listen to others, to practice and
/or
reflect on the subject until he reaches something specific (and not easily or promptly answerable) worth being the object of his quest or question.
4th: with the question in hand, go for the answer. If it’s valuable for you, more time or less time you are definitely going to get it. If it’s too broad, or you lose interest, or if you need
more
after getting the initial answer, no problem: you can reformulate and start from the beginning. Great part of the necessary questions only come after the answer already came by a long course of inquiries [questions] (natural consequence of studying with a desire).

1 and 2 came at a particular time together and where more deterministic to the line of this episode.

3) Teacher Roosevelt, a course administrator (coordinator) of my post-graduation at Escola Paranaense de Direito, that ministered about the end of course paper and how to pose the question you are going to pose in order to write about a topic.
4) Gym
exercises
(because doing seated leg curls is difficult and gives strange sensations to many men; as
thinking
, gives a strange feeling one can’t even discern immediately if it’s good, bad, or only odd).
