WHAT DRIVES US?
To be literal our minds drive us like a person drives a car but lets go deeper. Selfishness or wanting for ourselves. Every thing we do is selfish and it is impossible to do anything non selfish. There are two things we are selfish for things, like money, or glory. There are two types of glory internal and external. Internal glory is glory that you get from yourself like doing a good deed when no one is looking. External glory is glory you get from others like doing a good deed when people are watching. Selfishness is a good thing and it is why capitalism works. That doesn't mean you should seal everything you want because that would bring shame, the opposite of glory. Instead you should be smart and do what will make you happy, others like you, and gets you the best things. If you do you will be rich, happy, and loved. However some people are stupid and they do what they think is best for them but instead they wind up poor, guilty, or hated.
