Safety needs is the next layer.
It is essentially saying once survival is taken care of,
we can begin to think about long-term security and physical safety.
We can begin to think about our long-term health and about our routines, kind of knowing that tomorrow isn't going to be completely uncertain.
The third level is love and belonging.
Humans are social creatures, so we need friendship.
We need family.
We need intimacy, community.
We need meaningful relationships.
We need to feel connected to other people and accepted by them.
But that cannot be prioritized until, you know, you know where your next meal is going to come from or until you feel safe.
So love and belonging is the third layer.
And then on top of that layer is esteem needs.
This includes self-respect, confidence, achievement, recognition, essentially just this core belief in this core sense that we matter and we have value.
It's really just about how we see ourselves and how we feel we're being perceived.
You can kind of see at this stage how all these needs build on each other until finally we get to the top of the pyramid, which is self-actualization.
As I said, I think previously, this is the desire to fulfill our potential, to pursue our purpose, to express ourselves creatively, intellectually, to grow as individuals and to become who we are capable of becoming.
Interestingly, later in life, Maslow actually replaced self-actualization with self-transcendence as the highest human goal.
I said replaced, that's not true.
He basically added an additional layer and that additional layer or level was self-transcendence.
