    it should be to move toward our primary goals.

    primary goals/drives include things like curiousity, empathy. and love.

    of course to do the things that we enjoy doing we have to do things we dont enjoy. like work.


    the goal of moving toward our goals may sound like a tautology (and perhaps it is) but the point is that the mind can get so screwed up that it can actually set itself the goal of moving away from its own goals. of course, ultimately that can only lead to death.
