The Whys and The Hows...

The Whys and The Hows...

So, the "Whys" and the "Hows" .. the meaning of these words theoretically is almost clear to everyone. But what creates a difference is the adaptation of these words in life. So, I was the person who knows a lot of "Hows". I mean a lot of ways of doing the work. Just assign me a task and I know how to achieve it with the best possible ways. 

As I am having the habit of sharing everything with my wife including the complexities and issues comes up in the professional life. Though she's an HR professional and I am an IT professional she actively participates in the discussion. But whenever I am discussing the "Hows" of my issues she always pushes me to find the "Why" factor behind the scenes. 

Sometimes while thinking about "Why" factor, the solution automatically comes up to my mind, sometimes the better approach gets clicked and sometimes I realize that I am actually investing efforts on unnecessary items. This all just motivates me to think about the "Why" factor more. So gradually I am shifting my behaviour from knowing just only "Hows" to thinking about "Whys" also.

So, do you always think about "Whys"?
