I just watched one of Anthony Robbins' 'motivational videos'. He didn't call himself as motivational. Why so? Funny, I thought. But then, he said, "I'm a 'why' person!"
Exactly what he meant, I wasn't sure at first. Obviously, when i thought about it for a while, I just knew he was right. Simply because, we need to know why, more than how, what, when, or which. That was his point. People expect him to motivate, but instead get something better, they are given a purpose.
Okay, this all sounds too advertisement-like. Okay, back to why. We should all realize that we always think of why. Why I did this or that or whatever! It is without a doubt a question of why.
He also mentioned something that had to do with emotions. Surely you've heard this one before. But for those of you who hadn't, well, for your information, emotions affect our decisions, which affect our lives. That sounds far-fetched, but rest assured, you will realize this soon enough.
Why then do I bring this up? Why oh why? That's for you to find out. But do give a try, find a way to ask, "WHY?" Mark my words, there's always a point, a goal, or an aim for us to pose that question. As we do that, we feel those little emotions, that we thought would never affect us.
It's not in our nature where we feel that emotions are rendered useless. We need them, and they need us. (Yes, this sounds stupid.) But give it a try. Ask why, and think of your emotions, for they would decide why.
