An issue I have with Maslow's hierarchy of needs

Damn, perhaps this was a freudian slip, but up until a second ago I thought that said "revenue". but upon further inspection, I think it says "revenge".

wtf
 
From my POV Maslow is correct. If you don't have some sense of place to begin with, you can't estimate whether or not it fulfills your needs; from participation in the status quo may come dissatisfaction and the desire to better yourself. Then when your sense of self is solid, you're secure enough to be able to help others (without losing yourself).

it's a hierarchy, therefore you can't have one without the lower one.
 
I just can't believe we are discussing Maslow's hierarchy in here. Very cool!

Well said.
 
i'd like to say that venturing off the status-quo line to better oneself doesn't mean being different for the sake of attention, it means being different because it's the harder, yet right thing to do (for yourself and possibly others)

a sharpened sense of self-realization and purpose

You are happy to wake up alive and in one piece.

I'm not joking. There will be a day when being alive is the only need,
and you really begin to appreciate everything.
Lion, you remind me of my grandad, (no offence) he also used to cut through all the bullshit and come out with some golden words of wisdom.
