When we were kids
every question was "Why?".
Why is the sky blue?
Why do I have to brush my teeth?
Why do the stars twinkle at night?
Then our questions turned to "How?".
How do you make breakfast?
How do I tie my shoes?
How do you drive a car?
And how does the engine work?
Schools are filled with how.
Jobs are filled with how.
We get so filled up with How
we often forget Why.
But the passion is in the why:
that is where the power lies.
Why are you doing what you are doing?
If you have a strong enough why
you can always find the how.
