Maslow's Heirachey
Maslow's Hierarchy explains how the human mind works and how to achieve happiness in the order it comes in. It has different levels in order to get to the top in your life! You can reach the top level but, that doesn't mean you'll stay there. Something tragic can happen and set you back or something good and bounce you further, but stick around and ill help explain.
Primary Needs
Primary needs are the first level in the Maslow's Hierarchy. This level includes food, water, and shelter. Just the basic needs for every human being.
Safety and Securtiy
Safety and Security is the next level. You have to achieve the primary needs level in order to move up to this. How you can do that is by having a steady income of food and water and have found a reliable shelter. Safety and Security basically mean that you feel safe and comfortable in your environment.
Love and Belonging
This is the 3rd step in the hierarchy. Once you feel comfortable in your environment, you can begin to branch out and find love. Once you find love, you get a sense of belonging and it makes you feel good.
Esteem
Esteem is the 4th level in the hierarchy of needs. After you find your love and belonging it starts to help your self esteem and over all confidence and you build on it and grow. Esteem is very important step and it helps to lead you to the final step.
Slef Actualization
Self Actualization is the final level in the hierarchy of needs. This is when you have reached all of your levels and are now starting to love and appreciate yourself and life. Also, you try and see how you can help others in your life. Granted, you don't stay here for the rest of your life. It's not like Nirvana but, it is rewarding for the time your are there.
