Anthony Robbins describes the basic 6 human needs. This is just a summary

HUMAN NEEDS
(after Anthony Robbins)

2. 1 Certainty
People want something of value in life and
something that gives them comfort.
This can be anything from comfort food, a
couch at home, a cigarette, anything making us
feel safe.
Anything making us feel good.

3. 2 Uncertainty
We also look for variety in life.
We look for something unexpected to happen.
Positive change or being unsure if things
happen or not.
Situations that get us out of our comfort zone.

4. 3 Significance
This is about degrees or recognition for doing
something.
Being important and feeling acknowledged for
something we have done or achieved.

5. 4 Love/Connection
We all want to be loved.
Something that gives me a hug, a strong
feeling or someone you feel strong about.
Deep connectivity to someone or something.
Love.

6. 5 Growth
Feeling valued and getting the feeling that you
grow.
Getting the feeling that you are not wasting
your time.
Emotionally. Spiritually, Intellectually growing.

7. 6 Contribution
Giving beyond expectations.
Going beyond the usual to help others.
Part of a club, charity or donating money, doing
something good for society.

8. Summary
Anthony Robbins suggests that if three of six
human needs have been met, it is an addiction.
That can be positive as well as negative.
If you smoke: met 1 - 3 - 4?
If you go to gym: met 1 - 3 - 5?

9. Thank you!
