On looking back at that paper, it now seems clear to me that I was struggling to deal with a conflict over my deep conviction that psychoanalytic theory had to take account of other strong motives that were not instinctual drive impulses-in particular, the need to experience or control feeling states of one sort or another. I was, I think, beginning to be involved in much the same sort of problem that concerned many others. At that time my way of dealing with the issue was to do what was perhaps commonly d o n e t h a t is, to follow Freud in making use of his own solution to this theoretical conflict by shifting the emphasis from the drive impulse itself to the hypothetical energies regarded as derived from the drives and making the assumption that such energies entered into all motives.
