Maslow built a pyramid
motivation in a model
human needs placed
on different steps
bodily needs at the bottom
safety on the first step
belonging and love on the next
accomplishment above that
self actualization in the tip
to achieve one’s full potential
through creative activities
to be the best one can be
to live a life of high morals
spontaneously with meaning
fulfilling our inner potential
is the highest of our needs
when we are not there yet
it simply means our other needs
have not been met yet
the thing to consider
how our mental state
affects our physical reality
unless we are seeing ourselves
as already achieving our dream
including the detailed picture
our body-mind doesn’t know
what place to take us to
and we are still elsewhere
create a better mental imagery
life will improve accordingly

A poem about Maslow seems fitting.
