For me,InSoftware development, itIsAll about why. I feel a very strong need to understand why I am doing everything and
 

 
Anything IDo. Furthermore, I am upset with myself when I cannot clearly state why, and on the flip side take prideInKnowing

Both sides of a debate, and everything seems relatively even, being comfortable with a demo-can easily tip the scalesAsThe
 

 
Comfort level may make you more efficient and even happier.
