What Do You Need?

Post by Lightning Rod » July 6th, 2007, 11:19 am

Maslow's hierarchy of needs:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Maslow

This is my hierarchy of needs:
these are the things I need to be a successful and content human being

to have people around me who I love and am loved by
a room where I can sleep, smoke and work
high-speed internet and telephone and cable tv
rations--food, beer, cigarettes, pot
creative and productive work
time to do my own work
spell checker

happiness--that's another thing
happiness depends on only one factor:
whether I choose to be happy or not

these are the times when it's easier to be happy:

when I am loving and loved
when I create something that amazes me
when I create something that amazes someone else
when I can be of use, when I can give
when I'm very high
when I think I'm pretty (see previous entry)

What is your hierarchy of needs? And what makes you happy?

Food – A well-prepared meal and a family to enjoy it with.
Appreciation – To be appreciated and respected.
Help – People around me who want to help with the day-to-day chores which need to be done.
Time & Companionship– Someone to spend time with me who enjoys spending time with me.
Travel – Someone to go places with me who enjoys my company.
Ears – Someone to listen to me and care about my concerns.
Creativity – The time to create and the satisfaction of having created.
Collaboration – People who enjoy collaborating with me creatively.
Music – People around me who enjoy listening to music with me and creating music with me.
