Abraham Harold Maslow and Self-Actualization

Abraham Harold Maslow and self realization Abraham Harold Maslow was born in Brooklyn, NY on April 1, 1908. He is the oldest child among the seven children born under parents and is a Jewish immigrant from Russia. His parents were great for children of the "new world" and worked hard to promote him in his academic research. He is smart but he is very shy, I remember that his childhood is lonely and very unhappy. He is seeking evacuation to books and research. His father wanted him to become a lawyer and Maslow attended the city college in New York.

The term self-actualization came from the theory of humanitarian psychology, most notably from the theory of Abraham Maslow. Maslow has created the term self-fulfillment as representing the growth of individuals to satisfy the "big problem" of human struggle, such as the highest demands, the most advanced concepts, and pursuit of life. Human growth can not go beyond this stage without safety, safety, need for protection, a stable safe environment without conflicts next to the pyramid, safety. Invisible desire

Psychologist is Abraham Maslow. He developed the famous Maslow needs hierarchy. Normally they are displayed as pyramids, but people have multiple levels of demand, higher level demand (self esteem and self-fulfillment) only takes precedence if they meet basic needs (security and security) . Maslow believes that the low level of the pyramid is "a lack of demand". When they get enough levels, their motivation goes down. As everyone knows, even if you have a bank of 45 million dollars, up to 46 million dollars will not bring in many additional incentives.

It is easy to keep in mind the theory of Abraham Maslow when solving big problems such as poverty. Basic physiological needs usually take precedence over high-level life needs such as love, attribution, self-esteem, self-actualization. In the field of society, first consider the necessity and establish an appropriate foundation, we will raise the level of demand. However, at seemingly difficult poverty alleviation work, we do not seem to be in the next stage. We erroneously believe that if they are hungry they can not worry about self-esteem or should not be worried.
