“Asking why teaches you to see how things got to be the way they are. Asking why also puts us on the hook – it means that we’re also open to being asked why, and it means that at some level, we’re now responsible for doing something about the status quo.” | Seth Godin, The Practice

The reason this is so is because a good discussion about “why” inevitably leads us to ask – “why not?”

And, the “why not” question is the precursor to change.
