Pyramid Model of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of human motives is frequently represented as a five-level pyramid. At the foundation are physiological requirements like food, water, shelter, and warmth. The subsequent level involves security needs, such as safety, employment, and assets. The third tier encompasses social needs, including family, friendship, intimacy, and a sense of belonging. The fourth stage relates to esteem, covering self-worth, accomplishment, and confidence. The apex of the pyramid is self-actualization, which represents the drive for inner fulfillment.
