Maslow’s hierarchy

Abraham Maslow’s theory of needs-based motivation is a simple idea. It shows what pushes us to act through a five-level pyramid. First, we need basics like food and a home. Next comes safety, to feel secure every day. Then, we crave love and a sense of belonging. After that, esteem matters—think confidence and respect from others. At the top is self-actualization, becoming your very best self. You must meet each level before moving up. Studies show 80% of people focus on lower needs first. This theory helps explain why we do things daily. Dive into it, and see what drives you most!
