We think we want to be rich. Or famous. Or powerful. We want to succeed, we want to achieve. We want more of this. We want less of that. These desires of ours are explicit, they define our goals and order our priorities. We salivate over them.
But deep down, they don’t reflect what we actually want. They’re proxies, indirect ways of getting to what we’re really looking for.
