Finding True Motivation: The Balance Between Needs and Wants

When we focus on our needs and try to fulfill them at a high level, I believe motivation comes and a certain fulfillment and meaning is imbued into our lives.
Why do so many of us feel unmotivated and anxious, even when we have everything we think we need? In this episode of the Primordial Provisions Podcast, Ali Elashram tackles this very question. Ali believes that the root of our angst lies in confusing our wants with our needs. He suggests that true motivation comes from fulfilling our essential needs first, rather than constantly chasing after our desires.
Drawing from Maslow's hierarchy of needs, Ali explains how prioritizing basic and psychological needs can lead to a more meaningful and motivated life. He argues that when we invest in our needs to the point where we have surplus energy and resources, only then should we indulge in our wants. This approach not only brings order and hierarchy to our lives but also ensures lasting fulfillment.
Ali's passionate and authentic discussion offers a fresh perspective on how to achieve motivation by focusing on what truly matters. This episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling stuck or unfulfilled, offering practical advice and deep insights into the human psyche.
