According to Freud, the reality principle in the mind,
playing out likely
scenarios, weighs the
costs and benefits of any effort before deciding either
to act upon and gratify or else to restrain and abandon
an impulse arising in accordance with the pleasure
principle. And this interplay of pleasure principle
checked by reality principle is obviously fundamental to
all
motivation
and
values,
being crucial because happiness comes in meeting
ones needs for capable interaction with responsible
others,
partaking together in that very interplay of
pleasure and reality principles that imbues living with
meaningful relevance
and
autonomy.
