A Quote by Ted Nugent

It was psychobabbler Abraham Maslow who wrote of the phenomena of self-actualization. What Maslow failed to grasp is that reaching true self-actualization can only be ultimately achieved when you have your own brand of ammunition.

Go toward self-actualization rather than self-image actualization... Search within... for honest self- expression.

Bruce Lee

Many people dedicate their lives to actualizing a concept of what they should be like, rather than actualizing themselves. This difference between self-actualization and self-image actualization is very important. Most people live only for their image

Bruce Lee

If the only tool you have is a hammer, all your problems begin to look like nails. - Abraham Maslow

Laurell K. Hamilton

Musicians must make music, artists must paint, poets must write if they are to be ultimately at peace with themselves. What human beings can be, they must be. They must be true to their own nature. This need we may call self-actualization.

Abraham Maslow

Self-actualization cannot be attained if it is made an end in itself, but only as a side effect of self-transcendence.

Viktor E. Frankl

...being human always points, and is directed, to something, or someone, other than oneself—be it meaning to fulfill or another human being to encounter. The more one forgets himself—by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love—the more human he is and the more he actualizes himself.... What is called self-actualization is not an attainable aim at all, for the simple reason that the more one would strive for it, the more he would miss it. In other words, self-actualization is possible only as a side-effect of self-transcendence.

Viktor E. Frankl

Only to the extent that someone is living out this self transcendence of human existence, is he truly human or does he become his true self. He becomes so, not by concerning himself with his self's actualization, but by forgetting himself and giving himself, overlooking himself and focusing outward.

Viktor E. Frankl

Actualization of self cannot be sought as a goal in its own right. . . . Rather, it seems to be a by-product of active commitment of one's talents to some cause, outside the self, such as the quest for beauty, truth, or justice.

Sidney Jourard

The American tradition rests on pillars of self-questioning, self-actualization, and disagreement.

Bret Stephens

My mom says you only need three people you can rely on to achieve self-actualization.

Cassandra Clare

Parents who engage in this kind of [conscious] parenting understand the power of being present being mindful to take the time to build connection understanding that this foundation is the bedrock of all later self-worth, self-esteem and self-actualization.

Shefali Tsabary

A tenacious grip on our own ideals, irrespective of hurdles, would propel us towards self-actualization!

Deeba

Self actualization is the oxygen for the soul.

Brian Johnson

A musician must make music, an artist must paint, an poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be. This weed we call self-actualization….It refers to man’s desire for self-fulfillment, namely to the tendency for him to become actually in what he is potentially: to become everything one is capable of becoming.

Abraham Maslow

What a man can be, he must be. This need we call self-actualization.

Abraham Maslow

Money cannot buy the self-actualization of one's feelings.
