Home > Self-actualizing

The term self-actualizing refers to a set of psychological characteristics defined by psychologist Abraham Maslow. A person is said to be self-actualizing if they possess the following characteristics:

They embrace the facts and realities of the world (including themself) rather than denying or avoiding them.
They are spontaneous with ideas and actions.
They are creative.
They are interested in solving problems; often the problems of others. Solving these problems is often a key focus of life.
They feel a closeness to (at least some) other people and appreciate life in general.
They have a self-created system of morality.
They judge others objectively rather than with prejudice.
