Clearly, enough people have a "why" that they are more focused on the "how". If you can't figure out a "why" for yourself, then you probably shouldn't bother. No article written by a stranger is going to give you the "why".

- imgabe 10y agoThere's no single "why". Everyone has a different reason for wanting to be successful. Maybe they want to better support their family, maybe they want to prove something to themselves, maybe they want to fix some specific problem that plagued them in the past. I think it's pretty cynical and condescending to assume that people are just mindlessly wandering about their careers. People usually have some reason, even if it's one you don't think is a good reason. Regardless, my point is that the "why" is personal and is not something you can address for a general audience in an online article. It's not something someone else can or should tell you.
