Maslows Hierarchy of Needs
PHYSIOLOGICAL NEEDS

Physiological needs are the physical
requirements for human survival. If these
requirements are not met, the human body
cannot function properly and will ultimately
fail. Physiological needs are thought to be the
most important; they should be met first.



SAFETY NEEDS

With their physical needs relatively satisfied,
the individual's safety needs take precedence
and dominate behavior.
Safety and Security needs include:
Personal security
Financial security
Health and well-being
Safety net against accidents/illness and their
adverse impacts

LOVE AND BELONGING
After physiological and safety needs are fulfilled,
the third level of human needs is
interpersonal and involves feelings
of belongingness.
emotionally significant relationships in general,
such as:
Friendship
Intimacy
Family

ESTEEM
Esteem presents the typical human desire to
be accepted and valued by others. People
often engage in a profession or hobby to gain
recognition. These activities give the person a
sense of contribution or value.
SELF-ACTUALIZATION
This level of need refers to what a person's full
potential is and the realization of that
potential. Maslow describes this level as the
desire to accomplish everything that one can,
to become the most that one can be.
