Inventor Benjamin Franklin asked himself the same self-improvement question every night:

 In his autobiography, Franklin outlined a schedule that would lead him to "moral perfection." In this ideal schedule, Franklin asked himself the same self-improvement question every night: "What good have I done today?"
