To make the growth choice inst...

To make the growth choice instead of the fear choice a dozen times a day is to move a dozen times a day towards self-actualisation.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

If the essential core of the p...

If the essential core of the person is denied or suppressed, he gets sick sometimes in obvious ways, sometimes in subtle ways, sometimes immediately, sometimes later.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

It seems that the necessary th...

It seems that the necessary thing to do is not to fear mistakes, to plunge in, to do the best that one can, hoping to learn enough from blunders to correct them eventually.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

The person in peak-experiences...

The person in peak-experiences feels himself, more than other times, to be the responsible, active, creating center of his activities and of his perceptions. He feels more like a prime-mover, more self-determined (rather than caused, determined, helpless, dependent, passive, weak, bossed). He feels himself to be his own boss, fully responsible, fully volitional, with more 'free-will' than at other times, master of his fate, an agent.

People are not evil; they are schlemiels.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

In a word, to perceive an obje...

In a word, to perceive an object abstractly means not to perceive some aspects of it. It clearly implies selection of some attributes, rejection of other attributes, creation or distortion of still others. We make of it what we wish. We create it.

The only happy people I know are the ones who are working well at something they consider important.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

The best product should be bou...

The best product should be bought, the best man should be rewarded more. Interfering factors which befuddle this triumph of virtue, justice, truth, and efficiency, etc., should be kept to
an absolute minimum or should approach zero as a limit.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

Education is learning to grow,...

Education is learning to grow, learning what to grow toward, learning what is good and bad, learning what is desirable and undesirable, learning what to choose and what not to choose.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

Human beings seem to be far more autonomous and self-governed than modern psychological theory allows for.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

When we free ourselves from the constraints of ordinary goals and uninformed scoffers we will find ourselves roaring off the face of the earth.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

The human being is so constructed that he pressed toward fuller and fuller being.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

Religion becomes a state of mind achievable in almost any activity of life, if this activity is raised to a suitable level of perfection.

...the great lesson is that the sacred is in the ordinary, that it is to be found in one's daily life, in one's neighbors, friends, and family, in one's backyard.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

We must remember that knowledge of one's own deep nature is also simultaneously knowledge of human nature in general.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

Self-actualized people...live more in the real world of nature than in the man-made mass of concepts, abstractions, expectations, beliefs and stereotypes that most people confuse with the world.

To the man who only has a hammer, everything he encounters begins to look like a nail.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

We fear our highest possibilit...

We fear our highest possibility. We are generally afraid to become that which we can glimpse in our most perfect moments.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

Plateau experiencing can be ac...

Plateau experiencing can be achieved, learned, earned by long hard work.... A transient glimpse is certainly possible in the peak experiences which may, after all, come sometimes to anyone. But, so to speak, to take up residence on the high plateau .... that is another matter altogether. That tends to be a lifelong effort.

Abraham Harold Maslow 78 quotes

Become aware of internal, subj...

Become aware of internal, subjective, subverbal experiences, so that these experiences can be brought into the world of abstraction, of conversation, of naming, etc. with the consequence that it immediately becomes possible for a certain amount of control to be exerted over these hitherto unconscious and uncontrollable processes.
