A brief YouTube Shorts clip (TJ Walker, uploaded March 9, 2022) arguing that anyone can be a philosopher by habitually asking "why" about life choices (career, house, job, relationships). The speaker frames philosophy as practical self-examination aimed at creating happiness and purpose, and urges viewers to start immediately rather than waiting for formal credentials.

You don't need a PhD in philosophy in order to be a philosopher. You simply need to ask the question why? A lot more often. Why do I want this career? Why do I want this house? Why do I want this job? Why do I want to spend time with these people? That's the essence of philosophy. Asking yourself, is this the good life? Is this going to create happiness and more purpose in my life? Don't wait for the PhD. Start right now with the question, why follow the TJ Walker habit?
