The core of what you are doing and how you are doing it. Knowing the why is the best step to start.Note for myself: As an individual, I need to know the core values that I uphold as well as the life goal that I want to reach. It's important to introspect and ask why I am doing what I am doing. Knowing it will give me more direction to go on and live the life that I will be living.

The Why

The intricacies of process and systems. It's an important phase of the Golden Circle. The WHY will never be executed without the details of the How. Usually people who are good with WHY need a person who is good on the How.

The HOW

This is not included in the book, but I think this is common sense when you got the idea behind the Start with Why. The 3 parts of the Golden Circle should be well aligned to each other to make it work.

The ALIGNMENT

The output or the product. The visible part and the one which has the features on it. This may seem easy but is a crucial part of the Golden Circle. Without the WHAT, the why and the how will be useless.

The WHAT

My take on the book of Simon Sinek. Why, how and what is not the only things that matter, it's  the alignment of these three. 

The inspirational bestseller that ignited a movement and asked us to find our WHY Discover the book that is captivating millions on TikTok and that served as the basis for one of the most popular TED Talks of all time—with more than 56 million views and counting. Over a decade ago, Simon Sinek started a movement that inspired millions to demand purpose at work, to ask what was the WHY of their organization. Since then, millions have been touched by the power of his ideas, and these ideas remain as relevant and timely as ever. START WITH WHY asks (and answers) the questions: why are some people and organizations more innovative, more influential, and more profitable than others? Why do some command greater loyalty from customers and employees alike? Even among the successful, why are so few able to repeat their success over and over? People like Martin Luther King Jr., Steve Jobs, and the Wright Brothers had little in common, but they all started with WHY. They realized that people won't truly buy into a product, service, movement, or idea until they understand the WHY behind it. START WITH WHY shows that the leaders who have had the greatest influence in the world all think, act and communicate the same way—and it's the opposite of what everyone else does. Sinek calls this powerful idea The Golden Circle, and it provides a framework upon which organizations can be built, movements can be led, and people can be inspired. And it all starts with WHY.
