Somebody please explain this to me.
HOW DOES THIS WHITE MAN'S CHART AFFECT US BLACK FOLK?
Seriously.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs
maslow.gif


NOW, I'M NO SCHOLAR...

But isn't it IRONIC...

1. To debate *self-actualization* with BLACK PEOPLE using the tools of a WHITE MAN?

Abraham Maslow
(a Jewish Guy From Brooklyn)

2. A WHITE MAN... who uses a *Pyramid*... as the basis to build HIS OWN theories?

3. Am I supposed to learn how to be a better BLACK MAN from this WHITE GUY?

Not trying to clown...
- But what's wrong with this picture?
- Is it just me?
- Or am I bugging?

Maybe this is why I never finished college.:hmm:
Cuz I normally just got up and left class at this point.
 
hmmm, maybe you'd prefer Freudian school of thought, you know... Oedipus complexes and sexual stages of development?

Oedipus Complex? Sorry, I don't have a fetish for my mom.
I was just curious about this chart & why it's considered *THE HOLY GRAIL*.
That's all.
 
You are my SWORN ENEMY, if i could wake up and eliminate your seed/bloodline from this plane of existence, I swear id push the button before I hit my alarm.:angry:
 
This chart is not based on any racial guidelines, it is based on a humanistic needs. I studied this in school, but it's been a few years. Basically, he's saying these levels motivate your behavior depending on whether or not lower needs on the hierarchy have been satisfied. He believed that lower level needs must be satisfied before the next-higher level can be met.

Why are you so hostile?
All I did was ask a question.
If you thought *the question* was stupid, just say so.
What's with the personal attack?

Thank you for the insight.
 
It is simple. The lower levels must be completed before you progress to the higher levels of the Hierarchy. In so much as the pyramids were constructed from the base/ or bottom up, the human needs are satisfied in the same manner. Much debate has persisted regarding the esstem needs and love and belonging needs, as their positions could be potentially switched.

AND BTW, You would NEVER get a chance to push any buttons cuz I'd kill you in your sleep, playboy.

NOW GO FUCK YOURSELF.

If you have to study this, always study his chart from the bottom to the top. If you do that, it will make sense to you.

Thanks y'all.
 
For some strange reason i see your name in every thread with something dumb to say. shutup! I cant make you, this is all E-hostility......but if we were at a party and you said that much dumb shit i'd tell you shut the fuck up. If you didn't, that would mean that you were choosing to IGNORE my directive, forcing me to establish my dominant male status by whatever means YOU see fit. I just skip the middle man, and the argument.....I'm from D.C......arguing and shoulder bumping, and mulch chips on your shoulder, gets you fucked up. so, if I was to ask you to do something in a not nice way, i'm expecting for you to react in 2 ways, cause it simplifies things. you either shut the fuck up, or, catch an attiude, in which case i Make you shutup. Comprende? but........ since this is online, and you are entertainment 'll just fuck with you, cause you have to be where i am,and i dont like you, i wouldnt like you in person, cause youre a dumb ass. thats pretty much the short of it. im not going to start a thread.......but if I se you say something dumb, ima call you dumbass! I type the exact words im thinking most times...sorry if it hurts your feeeellllllings?:( bitch!:lol:

As backwards as this ignorant ass bullshit sounds...it kinda makes sense in a caveman, chimpanzee neanderthalic kinda way.

it is supposed to apply to everyone. i don't think that it's racially biased. you have to satisfy certain needs before you can move on to the other. i don't completely agree with all of it, but it does appear to be a good representation.

Thanks for the info.
I'll keep it in mind for the future.

Now I'm no scholar but:

To learn how to tie ones shoes using the tools of a WHITE MAN?

A White man who uses the RECTANGLE as the basis of his own theories?


3. Am I supposed to learn how to tie BLACK SHOES from this WHITE GUY?

4. WITH ONE HAND AT THAT?

Not trying to clown...

Yes, this is why you never finished college.
Cuz you think entirely to much in terms of race, when some things are purely common to ALL men. More things than not actually.

Sorry, don't need any *charts* to tell me how to live life.
(or to define it, analyze it, or even organize it.)

Nice try, though.
You were *almost* comedic.

Just studied that theory in Motivational Behavior Class about a 3 weeks ago! Brother Jam Jam is right! co sign!
 
This formula is the realest.

I got a D in Psychology 101 but never forgot this.

There are only a few to make it to the top of the chart: Abraham Lincoln, Oprah, Jordan, etc.

This needs to be etched in all y'alls brains to know which directions to to take in life.

The explanation is simple. Maslow's hierarchy of needs allows us to prioritize and view where we are in life. It's like a map: hence the triangle leading upward.

Only a few.

But you was clowning it in the other post?

Most of the constructive comments have been on...the theory works bottom up and the pyramid is just a visual cue to help you seehow it works.


Oedipus Complex? Sorry, I don't have a fetish for my mom.

It is not the HOLY GRAIL though.....There are a number of theories and theorists, with a number of followers. This is just one of them........

Another in a line of theories.....the key to any theory is how do you measure it and what are to tools that help support a theory. I use the word support because in research you never say prove (too finite), you only use your data to support (or discredit) a theory or hypothesis.....
 
Shit is very self explanatory, it gives a decent background of a "chair" to sit in for success and gratification.

Dont over indulge in it take it for face value and apply it where needed.

Like i said i dont talk nigga........But if you wanna try it i live in decatur...... i got bail/lawyer money........ come see me nigga....... if you cant figure out maslows hierarchy of needs, something a 5th grader understands........what you gon do to me bitch? I got the record, and the scars and the team to back my talk........do you pussy nigga?
 
I was going to explain this shit until I saw your post count. Its abstract man, basically you'll never reach the top. No one ever feels personally fulfilled. Sort of like the mods on here who live for bgol because they've never accomplished much else personally
 
The bottom of the pyramid acts as the foundation for the higher levels, with each eschelon being the foundation for a higher level
