“If you deliberately plan on being less than you are capable of being, then I warn you that you’ll be unhappy for the rest of your life”

Abraham Maslow

• “If you deliberately plan on being less than you are capable of being, then I warn you that you’ll be unhappy for the rest of your life”

Background:

• Born: April 1st, 1908

• Died: June 8th, 1970

• He was born in

• Brooklyn.

His theory

• He was known for his hierarchy of needs.

• It’s based on the five levels of the security.

• Physiological

• Safety

• Belonging

• Esteem

• Self-actualization

• He also did studies in how these levels of security affect homeostasis.

• I agree with his theory for the most part.

• I personally think that people need to have self esteem before they create relationships with other people.

• Can people lacking one of these basic needs reach self-actualization?
