Finding your how is equally important as finding your why.

Practice makes a man perfect. Practice also makes a woman perfect. Perfection can’t be achieved until you bring two high voltage words: why and how. Finding my ‘how' was like finding my wife. It was so very difficult that caused endless nightmares.

FYI, nightmares also happen in broad daylight.

Finding my ‘why’ was so precarious for me. In my school days, I was taught to frame questions with ‘WH’ words. Initially, I was wondered to learn why was it difficult to find my ‘why’. I framed hundred of questions using the WH word: why.

One fine day I watched a hyper-inspirational video in which I found why the ‘why’ was very important as Simon Sinek was killing the interviewer with his why’s. I started a journey to find my ‘why’ and in the process, I learned that I needed to find my ‘how’ to be successful in my life.

Finding my ‘how’ was a great challenge. Because writing makes you wise so I have been writing since my school days. Nevertheless, I’m still not a wise man, but I sleep early.

In the process of writing, I found that life is fun so I decided to frame my ‘how’ with that fun. Some people approached me to write humorous stories for them. I denied it because they didn’t know most of the time I google and write. I denied the offers because of low self-confidence. One day a therapist told me to brush my teeth after taking breakfast to build my confidence, I did. I brush two times within one hour before and after my breakfast.

With the passage of time, I made my audience laugh and gave birth to my well unknown publication. No writer has shown any interest to write for my pub. I’m a writer cum Editor with a beautiful daughter. Some Editors are envious of my double-digit fan following. My pub has 12 followers including my siblings and in-laws and I’m also a follower.

I love the process flow to become a Humourist, still, I doubt to call myself a Humour Writer. However, I’m floating like a boat in a sea of love provided by the readers who love to listen to me.

In this bumpy journey, I found my ‘how’ through my funny pen full of ink, which never hesitates to flow like a waterfall and creates spillage on the paper. It is the greatness of some of my loyal readers who read my humorous stories.

Finding my ‘how' through writing humour is one of the best things that happened to me because I could buy a box of diapers for my one-year-old son. Last month I made 19$ through my writing. Money does not matter, happiness matters and that happiness came when I found my ‘how’ through my humour.

Note: This is a work of Humour.
