Self Actualization and Becoming a Complete Human with Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman

For as long as humans have walked the Earth, people have dreamed about true potential. From fire and the wheel to putting a man on the moon, our desire to push the boundaries of what we once thought was impossible has been the driving force and often the crowning achievements in the relatively short history of humankind on this planet. But where does this desire stem from? Maslow's hierarchy of basic human needs has been the default ideology for man's quest for actualization for decades. But what really is behind self actualization. As we peel back the layers of the Complete Human, we find that our own potential as individuals and as a species emerges time and again as the distinguishing characteristic that might just save us from all of our past transgressions. On toady's show, Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman takes us on a journey into human's potential, the pitfalls of Maslow's theory and how we can all take one step closer to realizing our fullest potential.
