If you like what you read here, there\u2019s plenty more to check out in the guide!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-six-human-needs\">The Six Human Needs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>To succeed at investing, you need to change how you feel about money<\/strong>\u2014in other words, your emotional and physiological state. As Robbins explains, we don\u2019t really want money. We want how we think it\u2019ll make us feel\u2014whether that\u2019s powerful, secure, happy, or relieved.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What are the six human needs that we&#8217;re trying to fulfill? To get clear on how you feel about money, consider which of the following six you\u2019re trying to fulfill:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Need #1: Security\u2014<\/strong>feeling safe and certain about your circumstances or future. We need this to feel grounded and capable of taking risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Need #2: Variety\u2014<\/strong>surprises and unpredictability keep life exciting and enjoyable. If everything was certain ahead of time, life would get dull\u2014imagine if you knew everything everyone was going to say before they said it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Need #3: Closeness\u2014<\/strong>as social creatures, we all need to feel close and connected to friends and loved ones.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Need #4: Meaning\u2014<\/strong>we need to feel important, especially to those we care about. When we matter, life feels more meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Robbins cautions against trying to fulfill Need #4 by amassing wealth. Remember that money is a tool, not the end goal. Your money won\u2019t give you meaning\u2014but using it to live a passionate life will.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Need #5: Participation\u2014<\/strong>when our basic needs are met, we look for spiritual fulfillment. According to Robbins, we can do this by giving our time, energy, and resources to causes larger than ourselves. For example, committing your time and\/or money to ending homelessness is a higher-order spiritual calling that could bring you fulfillment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Need #6: Progress\u2014<\/strong>we\u2019re meant to keep developing as life unfolds. Neglecting to grow feels like what it is\u2014stagnation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further, <strong>rather than pursuing money to fill any of these six human needs, Robbins recommends starting from abundance and gratitude.<\/strong> If you <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/practicing-gratitude\/\">practice gratitude<\/a> daily, it will reconfigure how you think and feel so that you approach life with openness and joy. The more you do this, the more serendipity will come along to guide you to what you seek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the real secret of wealth, Robbins explains: <strong>The more you give, the richer your life becomes<\/strong>. Giving brings you connection and meaningful experiences, and it improves the lives of the larger human community. The more you spread the love, the more it comes back around to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: You must start with your mindset\u2014state and story\u2014 before fulfilling the six human needs because everything you do cascades from what and how you think. If you start from a mindset of poverty or scarcity, you\u2019ll act accordingly: fearing loss, acting stingy, and living under constant money stress. <a href=\"https:\/\/thomasjfrank.com\/the-rich-mindset-vs-the-poor-mindset\/\">Even wealthy people can have a poverty mindset<\/a> and thus feel poor. On the other hand, genuinely poor people can live from an abundance mindset and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/stay-happy-and-positive\/\">find joy<\/a> in giving and living well, even with little money to go around.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-robbins-core-needs-and-maslow-s-hierarchy-of-needs\">Robbins&#8217; Core Needs and Maslow\u2019s Hierarchy of Needs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Robbins explains that he derived the six human needs above from years of coaching and observing his clients. His model also reflects <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verywellmind.com\/what-is-maslows-hierarchy-of-needs-4136760\">psychologist Abraham Maslow\u2019s hierarchy of needs<\/a>, which explains human needs in five levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Maslow\u2019s Physiological + Safety needs \u2192 Robbins\u2019 security (basic health, finances)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maslow\u2019s Social needs \u2192 Robbins\u2019 closeness and variety\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maslow\u2019s Esteem needs \u2192 Robbins\u2019 meaning<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Maslow\u2019s Self-Actualization needs \u2192 Robbins\u2019 participation and progress<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Also like Maslow, Robbins separates his six needs into two classes: The basic needs (security, variety, closeness) and higher needs (meaning, participation, progress). Maslow called the lower levels \u201cdeficiency needs\u201d and higher levels \u201cgrowth needs.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are the six human needs?
