# Core human drives
- Drive to Acquire: the desire to collect material and immaterial things, like a car, or influence.
- Drive to Bond: the desire to be loved and feel valued in our relationships with others.
- Drive to Learn: the desire to satisfy our curiosity.
- Drive to Defend: the desire to protect ourselves, our loved ones and our property.
- Drive to Feel: the desire for emotional experiences like pleasure or excitement.
[[Whenever a group of people have an unmet drive, a market will form to satisfy it]]
The more drives your offer connects with, and the better you communicate those connections, the more attractive your offer will become.
