Building a Solid Foundation During a Crisis

Building a Solid Foundation During a Crisis

By Scott Smith - Motivation and Coaching

In a time of crisis, a solid foundation of basic needs is a great way to calm your mind.

In 1954, Abraham Maslow released his Hierarchy of Needs theory.  Since everything in life is being turned upside down - it might be a good time to get back to basics. Maslow called them deficiency needs (D-Needs):

1) Provide for your physiological needs. Food, clothing, shelter, money, everything that you need. 

2) Make sure you feel safe. Personally, emotionally, financially, health and well-being, and against accidents and illness.

3) Socially you need to feel a sense of loving and belonging. Social media might be finally showing it's real power.

While you work on your D-Needs, begin moving toward your being needs, otherwise known as B-Needs.

Maslow said, "What a man can be, he must be."

B-Needs are where I'm placing my focus. I using the power of the CoronaDRIVE US to answer a question. 

What CAN I do that will create a better life after this crisis passes.
