Maslow's Law

Maslow's Law, or Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, is a psychological theory that describes human motivation through five levels. It suggests that people aim to fulfill basic needs—such as food, safety, and health—before pursuing higher-level desires like belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. Think of it as a pyramid; fundamental needs must be met first, and once satisfied, individuals seek personal growth and fulfillment. This model helps explain why people's priorities change based on their circumstances and what they currently lack.
