And you can't simulate the meaning of life.

Yeah, I suppose, except that we need both.

The truth is that we need both because life is full of both kinds of problems.

Look, if you don't know the why of the things in your life, the how to and what mean nothing.

But if you only know the how to and what, then the why and the why is elusive.

I mean, you get the point that I'm trying to make.

I mean, you can either be incompetent at executing anything in your life or you'll have no purpose in the life that you lead.

You actually need both.

You know, I go to work every day.

I'm, you know, traveling around, doing my job.

It's great.

I know how to do it.

I'm competent at it because my left brain is working properly.

I know how to get where I'm trying to go and do what I'm trying to do.

I can write my speeches and my columns and books, et cetera.

But I got to know why.

which is that I want to do something good for the world.

I want to support the people that I love.

I want to glorify God.

That's what I want.
