Motivation Rules

That something else is the “Why”. The “why” is your real motivation behind your actions. I desire to run away from that tiger. Why? So I can live and avoid pain. Another example, I desire to own a sports car. The “why” in this case, the real motivation to own a car, is to look cool and successful. So you see the real motivation behind a goal of the reasons why you want to achieve that goal, not the goal self.
