I’m someone who’s constantly pushed myself way from internal thinking.

It’s still seems shiny, but over the years I’ve come to desire being able to share an interest and someone else actually give a damn.

So I’d say “because I want to make an impact on other people’s lives” and I’ve never had internal thinking that resulted in anything someone else would care about.

In fact I’ve never had anything original come from it either. Maybe if I had a Ph.D. In mathematics maybe I could do this, but all my best ideas have come from insights derived from conversations (sometimes years after the fact though, so to someone with a worse memory they might seem spontaneous).
