Speaking as a journalist and a continuous learner, “why” is the great word in the world. Second up is “how.”
“Why” encompasses research, in-depth reporting and focuses on cognitive and emotional answers. “Why” is philosophical, inquisitive and sometimes life altering.
“How” is a lot less about priorities, lists and steps. It’s more about doing. Doing right away and then ask why what happened happened.
If there’s one thing we oughta know about plans it’s that they will never happen the way we want them to. Time focusing on the details of “how” is time wasted because the details are going to change once you start doing.
“How” might be a question word, but the answer is experience.
Stay Positive & You Acquire Experience From Doing Then Asking Why
