"Need" preceeds "want". Often "want" has to be described to folks. "Want" is the action plan to implement need.
I know it's wrod parsing to a certain extent.
But often folks compare their current situation to the pain necessary to get to where they "want", and decide the marginal effort isn't worth the marginal benefit. When the benefit of "want" exceeds the pain and effort for the majority of people, THAT is when Real Change will take place.
