WHY? (Human Folly Series, Book 1)Every day, intelligent people make astonishingly foolish decisions.Not criminals. Not reckless thrill-seekers. Ordinary men and women-teachers, professionals, parents, business owners-people who, by all appearances, should know better. Yet in a single moment, they ignore warnings, overlook common sense, or convince themselves that a terrible idea is actually a brilliant one.And later, when the consequences arrive, they are left asking the same question: "Why did I ever do that?"This book explores that question through real, documented stories of human choices gone spectacularly wrong. Drawn from news reports, historical events, and verified accounts, each chapter examines a different kind of decision-impulsive actions, overconfidence, emotional reactions, blind trust, stubborn pride, and the simple refusal to slow down and think.Again and again, the pattern is the same. People see warning signs and dismiss them. They take shortcuts that seem harmless. They assume danger only happens to someone else. They trust their instincts instead of the facts. And in doing so, they set in motion events they never imagined possible.WHY? is not a book about laughing at the misfortune of others. It is a clear, engaging look at the psychology behind bad decisions and the surprisingly predictable ways human beings manage to sabotage themselves.Inside these pages you will discover: - True stories of everyday people whose choices led to disaster- How pride, panic, excitement, and impatience cloud judgment- Why intelligent individuals so often ignore expert advice- The mental traps that make foolish decisions feel reasonable- How small choices can create enormous consequences- The common patterns behind almost every major mistakeSome of the stories are shocking. Some are tragic. Others are almost unbelievable. But all of them reveal the same uncomfortable truth: poor decisions rarely look poor at the time they are made.Understanding why people make bad choices is the first step toward making better ones. By seeing how others fell into predictable traps, readers gain insight into their own thinking and learn to recognize the warning signs before it is too late.If you enjoy true-life accounts, cautionary tales, and books that explore the strange, fascinating nature of human behavior, WHY? will keep you turning pages-and quietly reexamining some of your own past decisions.Because no matter who we are, how smart we think we are, or how experienced we become, we are all only one impulsive moment away from asking that timeless question: Why?
