Hierarchy of Needs


Abraham Maslow, a renowned psychologist, developed a simple tool to explain why people do things.
He and other researchers found that people were motivated to do things by their basic human needs.
He arranged them into a triangle with the basic human needs at the bottom & the higher ones on top.


The Heirarchy of Needs, Starting with the First Basic Need:
Basic Needs: Food, water, shelter, clothing, etc
Safety Needs: Protection from physical and psychological threat, fear, and anxiety. The need for order, structure, and security.
Love and Belonging Needs: Acceptance, membership, affection, belonging, feeling loved and wanted.
Achievement Needs: Respect and liking for yourself and others. Strength, competence, status, achievement, freedom, fame.
Self-Actualization Needs: To do what you must to become fully yourself. To develop your own individuality. To become everything you are capable of becoming.
