Can you recognize when your needs are not satisfied?
Can you recognize when your needs are not satisfied?
We have already addressed the issue of human needs in a previous article of my blog. At that juncture the purpose was to offer a brief overview of a fascinating and complex theme. Today I propose you something practical to get in touch with your needs. Maybe you haven't asked yourself this question often (hardly anyone asks it if not in a growth path) but it is fundamental. Yes, because it is the needs that dictate our actions in every area of our life. How many times have we found ourselves reacting annoyed if not angry at the behavior of another human being? How many times have we reacted in response to a situation, a word, an attitude? Well every time this has happened, a need that is important to us has not been respected. Getting in touch with needs allows us to have greater clarity on what is important to us and what we expect from others. Reflecting on this issue, we may therefore realize that we ourselves do little to satisfy them, or that we have never asked ourselves what are the important needs for our partner or what unmet needs are hidden behind the whims of a child who is feeling anger or frustration. Bringing awareness, we have written this many times, is the key to better management of our relationships (with ourselves and with others). We are all wonderfully different. Developing listening to ourselves and others creates better relationships, healthier families, healthier communities. Satisfying our needs allows us to grow in the right direction in full well-being
