1. The call of the Sirens was supposedly irresistible. Once a man listened to it, he was dragged by them into the ocean and, consequently, died. However, Odysseus plans in advance. He asks his men to tie him so that he can hear the call, but not drown trying to reach the Sirens. He will force himself to resist temptation.
2. Odysseus and his men are struggling to go back home once the Trojan War is over. However, when the situation gets better, the men forget about their goal, content with the temporary pleasures they are experimenting.
3. No matter how happy and comfortable other women may make him, Odysseus always longs to return home to his wife and son. Even if the world has more exciting and new things to offer, the feeling that there is something missing is constantly there, guiding Odysseus back to his family.
