Summary

We’ve been told we can’t begin until we have a perfect Why—a polished purpose statement that explains everything we do. Start Before the Why argues the opposite: that clarity is usually something you discover after you move, not before. 
 Blending reflective storytelling with practical insight, this book shows how purpose emerges from experiments, small risks, and honest feedback from real life. It invites you to stop “pitching” yourself to yourself, to let curiosity lead, and to treat your early actions as questions instead of declarations. Instead of waiting for one grand, fixed mission, you’ll learn to work with shifting, season-by-season whys and build an identity grounded in evidence, not pressure. 
Start Before the Why is a guide for people who feel stuck in the lobby of their own life—ambitious, thoughtful, and tired of waiting for a sentence to save them. It’s permission to begin with a real reason, not a perfect one, and let purpose catch up.
