What "Why" did for me and it might do for you.

Why questions start the thinking process - they get us curious about the nature of things. Why am I not happy with my life as it is caused Gretchen Rubin to start The Happiness Project.

Why can’t I lose weight and keep it off inspired me to research more about insulin and the devastating effects it can have on the body if the body becomes resistant to its function.

Why am I sticking around in a job where I’m half a person led me to realize that employers are a service to their employees. Workers stay when they feel they’re receiving an ROI from their job greater than the investment they’re putting in.

Why are you so afraid was the question that I asked Jeff that got him to step outside his comfort zone and see himself as more capable than he original thought he was.

Why am I here reminded me of my dad’s answer to me when I asked what he did for a living, “I help people solve their problems.

Why not go and explore that Reminded me of my mom’s ability to push me to explore my interests - architecture, music, history, cooking, and travel.

Why is a springboard for finding a problem (read: questions) to solve, and questions advance action.
