    I would say a good, introspective question to start with is, "Why do I think and act the way I do?"; that can act as a good catalyst to spark one's cognitive reserves to branch off from there. That polishes one's critical thinking skills to being more articulated and in depth that furthers one's interests in more cognitively-complexed notions. Which in turn, furthers one's analytical skills in a league of its own when it comes to the pursuit of knowledge and wisdom.
    “The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.”

    - H.P. Lovecraft

    What would it take for you to question your own lucidity?

    "Il n'y a qu'un problème philosophique vraiment sérieux: c'est le suicide"

    I think Camus has a point

    Whatever the question; the answer is always the same:

    Fuck you.
