So, dass man ein bestimmtes Ziel erreichen will und danach handelt.

The German word "angestrebt" is the past participle of the verb "anstreben," which means "to strive for" or "to aim for." It is derived from the prefix "an" (at or towards) and "streben" (to strive or to strive towards). "Angestrebt" conveys the sense of something that has been sought after, aimed for, or desired as a goal.

Similar words in German include "zielen auf" (to target), "anvisieren" (to aim at), and "sich bemühen um" (to endeavor to attain).

The difference between "angestrebt" and these similar phrases is that "angestrebt" specifically implies that a goal has been intended and pursued over time (creating a completed action), while the others can describe ongoing or future intentions without that completed context.
