Simply deal with the situation as it stands rather than waste time with why, what and how*
This is good advice sometimes, but only sometimes. Often it's a very good idea to understand how a situation came about, in order to know how to deal with it properly. Even if decisions need to be made quickly, and you do decide to take today's advice, it still might pay to think afterwards about how you got into the situation, so that you can avoid it or repeat it in future, depending on whether or not it was a good situation.

Taking this advice would put an end to all research, wouldn't it? Curiosity may kill the cat sometimes, but often it leads to constructive ways forward.
