A search for pragmatism.

In an attempt to seek unpragmatic thoughts and actions, question the motives for one's needs. They rely on true inherent needs, habits and expectations. If the habits or expectations don't reflect one's inherent needs, then they're worth eventually undoing. As one unravels one's inherent self one unravels the basis for one's inherent needs and so sees what is unnecessary, or even draining. One finds needs that have arisen due to confusion or manipulation and so can work on alleviating them completely without actually working in their interest. This might alter the way one interacts with other people, with society in general and the way one views reality.
Some common unpragmatic needs relate to religion, politics, and hedonistic pursuits. It seems most in modern societies are immersed in unpragmatic needs, it seems they have little connection to their inherent self. In fact, it seems society works against such a connection. To start a discussion, one with ordinary needs and an ordinary world view might try to justify the pragmatism of it.
