What You Really Need And How To Get It

“Why do we do the things we do? Why is it that we measure success and value by attention and status, yet frown upon complacency? What force drives and shapes all of our emotions, actions, quality of life and, ultimately, our destinies? Did you know that the answers to these questions can all be explained by learning about the 6 human needs?”

Tony Robbins

Our NEEDS are our requirements as human beings:

• certainty
• uncertainty
• significance
• love and connection
• growth
• contribution

“All dysfunctional behaviors arise from the inability to consistently meet these core needs. But people’s needs aren’t just behind the bad decisions we make – they are also behind all of the great things humans accomplish. Understanding your own needs and psychology can not only help you avoid toxic behaviors and habits but can also help you achieve your goals.”

Tony Robbins

I invite you to consider these questions:

• Which of the six human needs are currently being met in your life?
• Which aren’t?
• When is your need for certainty at the expense of your need for variety?
• When is your need for variety at the expense of your need for certainty?
• When is your need for significance at the expense of your need for love and connection?
• When is your need for love and connection at the expense of your need for significance?
• When is your need for growth at the expense of your need for contribution?
• When is your need for contribution at the expense of your need for growth?
