Self-actualization according to Maslow

Self-actualization according to Maslow

Maslow explicitly defines self-actualization to be "the desire for self-fulfillment, namely the tendency for the individual to become actualized in what he is potentially.

Self-Actualised person according to Maslow "He possesses an unusual ability to detect the spurious, the fake, the dishonest in personality, and in general to judge the people correctly and efficiently"

Common traits amongst people who have reached self-actualization are:[5]

* They embrace reality and facts rather than denying truth.
* They are spontaneous.
* They are interested in solving problems.
* They are accepting of themselves and others and lack prejudice.
