    In any interaction with someone you never want to ask a "why" question. It causes an auto-response of defensiveness in the person you are talking to. It may not be reasonable, but the limbic system in the brain doesn't always do reason.

    If a co-worker walks up to you and says "why are you wearing a blue shirt?", your natural response is "what's wrong with blue?"

    What, How, When queries are always better when you need to get information from a party.



    The questions I asked "have you given up on ..." is a loaded question too.

    I'm not going to explain this well, but it is designed to get an immediate response out of someone who might have gone silent. a) it invites someone to say No - preferred over Yes. b) It creates a sense FOMO in the person you are asking a question of. c) It does one other critical thing that I'm forgetiing this moment. Forgive me

    I blame Simon for us always focusing on the why 😆. Who would’ve thought one stupid question would make one man so rich.

    This thread reminded me that I have an Amazon Audible account and am racking up credits and not using them. Ordered Never Split the Difference on audio. Approximately 30 minutes each way commute, so I should be through it in about 3 weeks.
