When To Stop Asking Why
“Know your WHY.” You hear myself and other leaders say it all of the time.
I encourage you to know your purpose behind doing whatever it is you’re currently doing. Before any event, important day or training session, I suggest you run through a few key reminders why it matters to you, why you want to give it your best and why you want to accomplish your goals.
The stronger your why, the stronger your will. The more connected you are with your purpose for doing something, the more likely you’ll pursue excellence in it. Your why matters.
But, there are also times when asking “why” is a flat-out waste of time. Searching for answers as to “why” something occurred can be a huge distraction, it can send you into a rut and it can paralyze to a point where you become inactive.
See continuing to ask yourself WHY you’re pursuing what you’re pursing is incredibly valuable.
But, continuing to search for why something has occurred (and beating yourself up over it, or staying down for wayyyy too long because you don’t understand how it’s possible) is not helpful.
Sometimes there aren’t clear answers for shit that happens. You get injured or sick. A loved one gets cancer. Someone says something terribly hurtful. You have to deal with something that your friends don’t. Something happens in your life that shocks the hell out of you. Of course you’ll want to investigate the situation and try to understand it as best as you can to see if there are any ways to mitigate the pain or learn anything. Then, it’s probably best to ACCEPT it for what it is currently (that means it can change) and look for ways you can be proactive with what you’re given.
Crazy shit happens. People do fucked up things. Unfortunate, terrible trauma is real and totally sucks. But, is it healthy for you to continue down the path of “why, why, why, why, why, why, why….?” Or, is it better for you to talk it out, pray, help whoever you can, get busy living the best life possible with whatever capabilities you do have, speak up, get away, cry it out, hug your loved ones, journal, share, get help, improve your health, and continue to look for ways to do great things in spite of whatever is going on?
Know your purpose and remind yourself of your WHY throughout your day. Let go of the pursuit of WHY when it’s only making you feel more confused, down, upset, frustrated, anxious or helpless.You might not be able to change the situation, therefore you can only change your response to it.

Dear @blocktrades, @roelandp, etc., you might want to remove your vote on this particular post, because basically all of this user's posts are plagiarised. Simply enter part of the text into google and you'll see what I mean. It would be a shame if this would actually pay out the $30+ that it's on now.
Come on man. Most of us are here for hours writing original content, and you are just stealing others work? Sort it out or you'll get what you deserve for sure.

@kaouimal This post and your entire blog has been brought to our attention at Steemit Mastermind Group for blatant plagiarizing.
We as a community will collectively flag down this kind of abuse to the Steemit platform. You are gaming the system to monetize others work.
It would be so simple for you to heed the advice of this very article and ask yourself why you are doing this? The effort and time you have wasted to plagiarize others work is only a step short of creating your own original content.
Simply quoting your sources without adding your own opinions or perspective is damaging to us all as a whole. I hope this serves as welcome change of direction and you adjust your sails to support Steemit rather than damage our reputation.
YOU HAVE BEEN FLAGGED!
