I don't know. i want to argue this :P. I think how is more important. Sometimes you don't need to know why. You just need to know how. Like if my laptop is broken I don't care why it's broken. If your wife/ girlfriend is angry, is it more important to know why or more important to know how I can make them not angry? i feel What's more important is knowing how to fix the solutions rather than why there is a problem. Asking why is sometimes wasting time. You just gotta take action and figure out the "how". why is more maybe initiating but I believe "how" is more on execution and execution is the crucial step in solving issues.

The solution to every problem on earth, to every goal yet to be achieved, to dreams yet to be realised is based on the why question. In there we find the solution we seek.

so I somewhat disagree with this statement. i think the how has more impact if we talking about solution to problems. We don't need to know why we need to solve something. We need to take the steps to figure out how to solve things.

It is also applicable in relationships as well; if one partner forgets the "why" the relationship was formed in the first place, why they are together, then there is bound that the particular partner can get distracted on the course.

I don't think anybody can really forget why they started a relationship can they? O.O It's pretty straightforward you like them or you just want to settle the human desires. Even if you know why, it won't matter if you don't know the how. You know why and get distracted but you don't know how to get back on course, what's the use of knowing why.

Just my thoughts though feel free to argue my point. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying why is not important. I just feel how is more important than why. Just think of it like this. Would you rather have a person ask why should I help you or would you rather have them ask how can I help you? I'm pretty sure it's clear here how I can help you is the better phrase right considering the person has a good heart and humane. Do we need to know why to help someone or would you rather just know how to help someone. I don't know I hope I'm making sense. It's 1 am here so maybe I'm not thinkign right lel
