This post is a reminder on a classic psychology theory by Abraham Maslow: a hierarchy of needs. It is normally illustrated as a pyramid, with more basic needs at the bottom. The pyramid represents an idea that in order for a human to move forward (ie. “go to the next stage in life”), the prior stage must be satisfied first.

A few prominent examples in the society may include,

• To be confident and feel accomplished, one should have a great relationship (that may surround them with positivity and encouragement).
• To have a great friendship and relationship, one should have a sufficient social ability.
• To have a sufficient social ability, one should have sufficient access to the most basic human needs: food, clothing, and shelter.
