Pyrkimyksillä

Pyrkimyksillä is a Finnish word that translates to "aspirations," "efforts," or "endeavors" in English. It is a plural form of "pyrkimys." The word generally refers to the actions and intentions someone undertakes to achieve a particular goal or desire. It can encompass both concrete actions and more abstract hopes and ambitions.

In everyday Finnish, "pyrkimyksillä" is used to describe the activities someone is engaged in to make progress towards something they want. For example, someone might be described as having "selkeät pyrkimykset" (clear aspirations) in their career, meaning they have well-defined goals and are actively working towards them. Similarly, "taloudellisilla pyrkimyksillä" could refer to economic policies or individual financial goals.

The term can also be used in a more philosophical context, referring to the inherent drive or striving present in living beings. This sense emphasizes the active pursuit and the journey towards a desired state rather than just the end result. The word highlights the process and the intentionality behind actions.
