Maslow built a pyramid
motivation in a model
human needs placed
on different steps

bodily needs at the bottom
safety on the first step
belonging and love on the next
accomplishment above that

self actualization in the tip
to achieve one’s full potential
through creative activities
to be the best one can be

to live a life of high morals
spontaneously with meaning
fulfilling our inner potential
is the highest of our needs

when we are not there yet
it simply means our other needs
have not been met yet

the thing to consider
how our mental state
affects our physical reality

unless we are seeing ourselves
as already achieving our dream
including the detailed picture

our body-mind doesn’t know
what place to take us to
and we are still elsewhere

create a better mental imagery
life will improve accordingly
