Reasons

People like to rationalise things, explain them away: It failed because of this. It worked because of this. They weren't punching me properly. If only I'd moved a second sooner. If only I'd waited.

What do these 'reasons' mean? Why do people want a reason?

People seek a reason in order to be let off, to be excused.
This will not work in self defence.
A punch in the face is a punch in the face. Explaining why you were struck will not alleviate your pain.
