Quote by Viktor E. Frankl

Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be pushed by drives.

Life can be pulled by goals just as surely as it can be push

Summary

This quote suggests that life can be either driven by external forces or pulled towards specific goals. While drives may dictate our actions in response to immediate needs or desires, having clear goals can provide a sense of purpose and direction. Similar to being pushed or pulled, both approaches can result in notable progress, but being pulled by goals allows individuals to actively and intentionally work towards their desires, ensuring a more focused and deliberate journey in life.
