    6th Why: "because waking up early every day for work stresses me out, so I need to go drink with friends at night...." Root cause = work stress. :D

      Yup. Definitely could be another root cause.

      6th doesn't exist, because no one forced you to work, and if it is stressing you then you should stop going completely.

    It’s extremely important to ask quality questions.
    Otherwise, this method leads to meaningless conversation or just simple criticisms to a personal skills or behavior.

      Is there a way to know when to stop? Not all root causes are obvious since many of them seem similar when not ordered.

    Q6: Why? A: Because I have deep seeded trauma that forces me to self sabotage by drinking too much and making poor choices.
    Point: Lack if responsibility is NOT a root cause.

    • @klaskycsupo121
      @klaskycsupo121 5 років тому +8

      That is not the root cause. Trauma is troublemaker but not the obstacle itself. If trauma is obstacle than you have no power over your life. Trauma is in the past, you can't fix it, it can't hurt you.

      boopy owo Five is a arbitrary cut off point, why not six? Why not why at seven? Why not why at eight?
      Also the answer you come up with at why number one could be wrong therefore making every subsequent reason incorrect.
      There could also be multiply responses to why rather than a singular. So at why 1 the answer is A and B but you only followed down the linear line of A you ignore all the factors of B. So when you get to the arbitrary fifth why, you could have the wrong response.
      I’m no expert so I could be wrong on this. I would love to hear back?

      But yeah you're right. I guess you could adjust how many "why" questions you'd ask depending on the situation (but who's to say thats the correct place to stop?) but I think it'd be a great place to start going in the right direction, since a lot of people (including me) are guilty of settling for the first answer neglecting any underlying reason that may cause the issue.

    I do not know why this video got so many likes, sounds like a bunch of fancy words with some images. If you want to boost your analytical skills , you practice math, and math is not just manipulating symbols, it is actually problem solving. Don't waste your time with this video and go to Khan Academy instead.

    • @kiera6326
      @kiera6326 3 роки тому +2

      I would also recommend reading. Whilst math improves your problem-solving and ability to break things down, reading can be a good booster in learning to pick up details and analyse them. Gaining general knowledge will also help with some analysis, and make it easier.

    • @TestSubject173
      @TestSubject173 3 роки тому

      Philosophy is very helpful because it's all about using concepts precisely, formalizing and forming arguments, finding assumptions you didn't realize you were making, and such. Domain-specific knowledge is also necessary to actually come up with ideas that aren't trivial or obvious.
