Slide 9/10/11 - Argues there are 5 stages of human needs that motivate our behaviour.
Physiological needs (breath, eat, drink and sleep) Once this has been fulfilled we are
motivated to move onto the next thing
Now we want Safety, to earn money, build up resources and look for shelter than can
protect us against dangers. Once we are satisfied and feel safe we have time to think
about the next step. In stage 3 we seek Love & Belonging a desire to be close to family
and friends. However, the moment we feel part of a group we already begin to wish to feel
a little different to the rest. At stage 4 we look for Esteem, self-confirdence and respect
from our peers. We want to ‘Be’ someone, if we have money we may buy a fancy car, if we
have a brain we write or think. Motivation to perform and compete is now at its highest.

fulfilled can we reach self-actualisation. Here we can relax, be creative, accept facts for
what they are, give back to others, experience balance.
