Logic dictates we should know why we're doing something, not just how to do it. Yet few pursue the "why" and I'm wondering why.

@mollydotcom isn't that odd? I've always been a "why" learner, which makes the "how' make more sense to me.

@mollydotcom 1. Requires thinking beyond the mechanics. 2. It's threatening because our reason might turn out not to be one we like.

@mollydotcom 3. Because of 2, it requires self-honesty. 4. Programming etc require a lot of learning how, so ppl learn to think in hows.

@mollydotcom The "why" often causes you to question what you're doing. Far less stressful to just blindly "do".

@fdevillamil have you ever tried not to ask yourself why ? You may discover you just can't.
