Abraham Maslow’s concept of self-actualization occupies a central place in humanistic psychology and the philosophy of the human being. Maslow viewed human beings as inherently good, creative, and motivated toward personal growth. According to him, every individual possesses an innate tendency to realize his or her fullest potential. Self-actualization is the highest level of psychological development, where a person becomes what he or she is capable of becoming. It represents the fulfillment of one's talents, capacities, and inner potential rather than merely achieving material success or social recognition. Maslow explained human motivation through the hierarchy of needs, often represented as a pyramid. At the base are physiological needs such as food, water, and shelter. These are followed by safety needs, love and belongingness needs, esteem needs, and finally self-actualization at the highest level. Lower-level needs generally require reasonable satisfaction before higher needs become dominant. Once an individual has achieved security, meaningful relationships, and self-respect, the desire for self-actualization emerges as the primary motivating force. Self-actualization is not a fixed destination but a lifelong process of growth, learning, and self-discovery. A self-actualized person continuously develops abilities, seeks truth, expresses creativity, and lives in accordance with personal values. Such
