🤔 What does Maslow have anything to do with your job?
Let's start with what Maslow's hierarchy of needs is
- There are 5 categories of human needs
- You start at the bottom of the pyramid
- And move up as each desire is ticked
Great! But how does this explain why I'm not happy with my job?
- Well, when you first start your career
- All you want is a job that pays
- And to satisfy the physiological desire.
But as that need is satisfied, you move up the pyramid & look for
âś… Secure employment,
âś… Pleasant work culture,
âś… Recognition for your work,
and lastly
âś… Self actualization.
Where a lot of us get stuck is at the last stage - self actualization.
This is why you might have a perfect job that's
- High paying
- Prestigious
- Great benefits
- Steadily moving up the corporate ladder
Yet still feel something is missing.
And that's because you haven't reached the last rung of the pyramid
- The opportunity to fulfill your full potential
