Maslow's chart shows the priority of needs for humans. The higher needs in this hierarchy only come into focus when the lower needs in the pyramid are satisfied. Thus, whatever problems you think you have in life, if water suddenly is gone, finding water will dominate your thoughts.So how are we doing?
- Psysiological: I think we've finally got this level covered!
- Safety: rut-roah, needs some work. No job, no home, no resources. Ouch!
- Love/Belonging: isolated from family, craves touch, friends try to understand. Need work here too.
- Esteem: not too bad here, considering. There's something to be said for achievement!
- Self-actualization: looking good!
Well, we'll deal with the safety issues first, and then work on the love/belonging. Probably easier to get friends with a job, house, and money than without anyway.
