            Did you ever notice the number of people who spend their time learning How To Do It?  And after they learn, they accomplish very little before they’re looking for a new How To Do It.  As soon as they master that, someone announces another How To Do It.  Although technical competence in any field is a necessity, the key to using know-how is know-why.

            The great organizations of the country and the great lives in history have been built on the answers to. “why?”  You can teach someone how to do a task, but that doesn’t assure his doing it.  But let him discover why and he’ll learn how in spite of all obstacles.  The key is not how to live but why you are living.  This stimulus will keep you growing.
