Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is our topic of the week. Abraham Maslow believed people are motivated by different levels of needs. Maslow suggests that people have innate desire to reach self-actualization (full potential to be who they are).

For some individuals, social may be more important than esteem or vice versa. Select one of the five needs and provide your feedback and thoughts on why it is important to you. Please give examples and thorough explanations in your answers.

A triangle is divided vertically into five sections with corresponding labels inside and outside of the triangle for each section. From top to bottom, the triangle's sections are labeled: self-actualization corresponds to “Inner fulfillment” esteem corresponds to “Self-worth, accomplishment, confidence”; social corresponds to “Family, friendship, intimacy, belonging” security corresponds to “Safety, employment, assets”; “physiological corresponds to Food, water, shelter, warmth.”
