Us humans are indeed irrational beings.
Regarding analysis, I wrote this in my book about my childhood: "[...] and in a way that's why I'm writing this book: I'm analyzing how I don't seem completely analytical."
It's entirely possible to crawl up inside one's ass trying to figure out why we do this or that. But as Emmie points out, there's a value-added reward for simply saying "fuck it" and going for broke. I spent a hell of a lot of years trying to figure out why I was doing this or that, but in the end I recognized (and still do recognize) the wisdom in these lyrics from the Sabs:
There's no need to have a reason.
There's no need to wonder why.
It's a part of me that tells you,
don't you ever, ever say die.
Get on with the day and Devil take the hindmost.
