However, some activities finish when they reach their ends while the others have their ends with them from the beginning. This is the distinction Aristotle makes between movement and actuality. For instance, I sleep in order to wake up the other day, however, although I may aim to see some specific entity, the activity of seeing does not stop when I saw a certain thing. Rather, I have always seen and I keep seeing, if I am not hindered in some way. The activity which has its end with it from the beginning is an actuality. We can say that actuality is the complete form of movement since it does not need attainment of a further end. Hence, they are both explicable with the principles of motion in a broader sense because all these different activities involve change. That is, all activities are possible insofar as they come from a certain potency and go towards an end. Indeed, in order to see, I need to have the potency to see, for instance, I need to have an eye, and I need the things to see in order to be actually seeing. Potency is the source of the activity insofar as it implies an inclination towards
