emotional connection
companionship
carry on asking 'why' to those questions
there'll be one fundamental truth that covers all of those things
Well the answer probably lies in the fact that I want to fill a viod
void*
lack of affection
i believe that this is all covered under 'desire' - desiring something brings about positive emotions, regardless of what it is you're desiring
lack of mother or father ?
There's a void within me that I want to fill
you have to work on it, to find why you have this gap and how you can fill it by yourself
I desire the image that is portrayed by being in a relationship
before to go in relationship
@Sigma it's a void left by social conditioning - you can fill it with something else
The way I fill it is through doing stuff
MMA fills it
easily
self-actualisation is much more fulfilling then meeting your emotional needs - you have a passion for MMA and that's great - don't let anyone sway u off ur path
once you self-actualise, you'll have a scope of how everything fits together
yeah exactly
emotional needs are at the bottom
that's what im refering to
physiological needs are at the bottom
yea
emotional are 2 under self actualisation
i tihnk 2
ooh
you're right
the top one, that wasn't published but maslow was working on just before he died, was self-transcendence that is actually on top of self-actualisation
just googled it
I've heard of self- transcendence
Don't know how to do that
@JDB yeah but I think there is a reason why we have this void, and the reason take place in childhood. i think some part of the maslow hierarchy are build during childhood. If they are not built well, there are those voids
the only way to self-actualise, and then transcend, is to be alone in your head and 'tidy up' things.
don't really know how to self-actualize either, but I've always thought that you need to meet all of the things below the top of the pyramid before you can self-actualize
@Shido yeah, it';s fustrating but the sooner you become conscious of this the sooner you can fill it and build further layers of 'meaing'
I agree with Shido on this one
I don't think all of my needs were really met during childhood, which is why I have emotional problems
well isnt self-actualising when you, 'self', actually realise, 'actualise', your potential and personal mission in life
