Motility and Motivation

As has been previously discussed, there is a distinction between Direction qua Exocentricity, and Direction qua choice of Exo-Point.  Similarly, in a vehicle, the accelerator aims at a general Elsewhere, while steering aims at a specific There.  And, in human behavior, the distinction is between Motility and Motivation, i. e. between Self-Activation and Purpose.  Thus, that only one oneself can activate oneself, and, arguably, that only one oneself can choose a goal to pursue, do not entail that the chosen goal is necessarily a promotion of some personal benefit.  In other words, Psychological Egoism, which asserts the latter, is based on a confusion of Motility and Motivation.
