Why?


This is a classic question that every parent likely comes to dread, but it is also one we sometimes avoid as we grow up.

Novocaine Training Part II: The Decision-Making Process

In his 2009 book Start with Why, Simon Sinek put the “why” question at the center of the golden circle. Why > then how > then what? Why do you do something? Then, how do you do it? Then, what puts it into action?

In other words, the why is implemented in how and what. And the how and what matters.
