In reply to Joyce Hansen. I do remember driving my parents crazy with my Why questions, Joyce, and the reward was an entire collection of Brittanica Encyclopedia! May your WHY to educate always guide you!

As kids, we probably drove adults crazy by continually asking why questions. Now, when we have to ask them of ourselves, some of us have to dig deeper, than others. For me, it’s about still being able to be an educator. I love sharing information. However, with each new vehicle for getting information out there, it’s a learning process for me. So I get to share and learn at the same time.

In reply to Jayashree. Thanks Jayashree. Motivation comes from knowing your true WHY and that is what gets us through all the challenges we face when setting up a business. Thanks for visiting The Karmic Ally Coaching Experience Blog!

In reply to Teresa Salhi. I love the deer in headlights analogy, Teresa. So apt! Answering this 1 question opens us up to our real goals and agenda and makes it easier to create a holistic vision for our lives and businesses and even careers!

In reply to Marquita Herald. You've hit the nail on the head, Marquita! Knowing our true WHY makes us accountable for our success or failure, as the case may be. I'd hate to be in the passenger seat when it comes to my Life. Better to make mistakes than never learn at all. ;)

In reply to Julia. A strong WHY that keeps us motivated and focused on the end goal is important, Julia. Thank you for sharing your story with us!

The first time a mentor asked me many years ago about my WHY – I surely looked like a deer in headlights. But from that point on I have made a point to be soul searching and soul connected. My WHY is also my compelling life and business vision. It ripples in my heart, brings a tear to my eye an lights me on fire with delight. Good stuff here!

Oh my, this is such an important exercise and one that is relevant to life in general, don’t you think? So many people just go with whatever fate happens to through their way, happy to sit in the passenger seat rather than shift over and become the driver in their own life journey. Ultimately, it’s about accountability and that can be scary, but it’s also empowering. Thanks for the inspiration!

I love your take on this. Like you say the why is so important in keeping us focused and motivated. I left my regular teaching job to teach my own classes many years ago because I wanted more time to be able to focus on things outside work, too. As you mention it takes a while to build up to a stable income, but I have never looked back, and this is what gives me the time to write as well as to pot:)
