I believe the answer is: when you feel a thorn in your leg, you stop to remove it

Drive theory stated that every individuals have inherent tendency to stay away from something that created a certain level of discomfort and negative state toward us.
This tendency is created as survival mechanism that enable us to stop and think about the potential implications of our actions, and evaluate whether we should continue those actions or not.
