The Skill of asking the right questions is usually very underrated and many people just overlook it. That's why I'm appreciative of google for teaching this core skill and making it super interesting.

I just finished the 2nd Course in the Google Data Analyst course - even though I have experience in the field, this course reminded of areas that I should focus on and work to strengthen my skills in.

Asking questions always lead to a discovery. "Why did the Apple Fall?" this question led to the discovery of Gravity. Hence, it is imperative that we ask SMART queries.
