Uhh...

What?

Me too

Whatever you're reading, it's some word salad.

And your post doesn't help.

Think of it in easier terms:

When your core commitment is being hydratet your need will be water.

You want to be satiated so your need for that will be food.

What's not written but implied here is a state of deprivation (thirst, hunger).

Ooo thank you, that helps!

Was it always easy for you to create examples? I’ve always been awful at trying to explain with examples.

I would like to get better at it but it’s so bad. Like no correlation whatsoever. Is there even a point in trying to improve in that area?

For one thing, those aren't opposites. And that italicized "purpose" elicits what we used to call "douche chills" back in the day. Whatever you're reading, it sure doesn't look like a great use of time.

Tbh I didn't think about it until now. For me it comes natural.

Is there a point? Wanting something often is enough reason for me.

Can you make money off of it? Nah I don't think so haha

That's a typical concept of writing: the conflict between a want and a need. Characters (and people) often don't grasp what it is that they need to be whole.

So if their goal is idk 'get rich' look at the underlying motive. Here for example '(assumingly) being more attractive to women', and think about what it says about the character and a problem of his and if there could be a better way to tackle this problem. Here his problem could be 'lack of self worth' and a better strategy would be to love yourself.

I'm sorry, but that isn't correct. There is no conflict between 'being hydrated' and a 'need for water', while there is a conflict between 'control' and 'trust'. And that's what you want in a story: inner conflict that the character will work on and grow.
