It can be hard to ask for what you want, but you won’t get it if you don’t. I often say, “If you don’t ask, you won’t get an answer.” If you ask, you improve your chances right away. We can’t expect other people to know what we want and read our minds (and yes, that includes our spouses.) So, let’s talk about how to make “the ask” easier so you can reach your goals with as little stress as possible.
At different times, we all need or want different things from different people. You want a friend to tell you about a job. You want to get a raise from your boss. You count on your workers to get things done for your department. It might seem like each of these needs calls for a different approach. There is, however, a simple two-step structure that you can use to talk about any need or want and that will help you ask for what you want. No matter what the request is, you have to deal with two things: ability and willingness.

The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) is what makes the World Wide Web work. HTTP also runs websites and mobile apps. The HTTP protocol is made to move data between networked devices by giving clients and servers a way to talk to each other. HTTP is a protocol that lets clients and servers talk to each other. For example, when a browser (the client) sends an HTTP GET request, the web server sends the response back to the browser. The HTTP request has the target URL, HTTP request headers, additional URL parameters, and HTTP method (typically GET). The HTTP response tells you the status of the request (usually 200), what you asked for (HTML, JSON, an image, etc.), and any HTTP headers that aren’t required but tell you how to understand the content. All programming languages used today have built-in support for HTTP.

Any object on the internet, like HTML files, stylesheets, images, videos, and scripts, is called a “resource.” If you want to look at something on the Internet, your browser has to contact these servers to get the resources it needs.
