nce.I personally find Maslows, and the humanistic school of thought extremely fascinating. I believe He was trying to encourage people to wake up to their feeling side, without being bogged down in mysticism. I think young people today are much like those of the sixties who embraced ideals like the ones found in humanistic psychology set forth by Maslow. He offered a way of seeing things scientifically, but with all the human elements still attached. His views are of a much more personal level. His theory was one of the first to say boldly that people could and should do something about their lives. I think he believed that people should take responsibility for the way they approach life. Maslow would often ask people for their philosophy of the future, what would their ideal life or world be like, and get significant information as to what needs they do or do not have covered.In my opinion, this is the most important part of Maslows teachings. If we would spend more time listening to what others want, instead of always telling them what they should have or do, all of our relationships would be better off. The relationships with our family, friends, and even with ourselves....
