From One of the Most Popular TED Talks of all time...

In 2006, Tony Robbins gave the famous talk, “Why We Do The Things We Do.” Over ten years later, it is still one of the most popular TED talks of all time – and for good reason. Every single person has the same fundamental six “human needs,” but each person places different levels of importance on them and has unique beliefs about how to satisfy those needs. By understanding what your #1 human need is and how that shapes your behavior, you can take control over your life’s direction and even learn how to create new patterns that unlock your hidden potential and lead you to lasting fulfilment.

 

 

Where to shift your focus

  • Variety: Too much certainty leads to boredom and stasis. While humans need stability, we also crave change and stimulation that variety brings. What can you do to add variety to your life and reap the rewards of the challenges it brings?
  • Learn: By learning new things and having new experiences, whether it’s a different exercise class or going to a new place on your next vacation, you’ll stretch yourself. Turns out you don’t always have to know how a story will end when you begin it.
  • Growth and Contribution: Combined, these two needs make us feel fulfilled and whole. Making progress leads to happiness, which then turns into more joy to share with the others in your life who need it. How can you start giving back and growing again?
