A comment on my question phrasing totally shifted my approach

Someone here pointed out my questions were too broad, like 'how do I get better at this?' They suggested I try 'what's one specific thing I can do in the next 24 hours?' I started asking that instead and the answers are way more useful... anyone else get feedback that changed how they ask for help?

Wait, you got that advice from a comment? I always thought people just naturally asked better questions over time. That 24-hour trick is genius, I'm stealing that for my team chats tomorrow.

That trick just wastes everyone's time, honestly.
