The Six Basic Human Needs: Significance - Paul D. Lowe & Hina Solanki


Listen Later

In the fourth part of their ongoing collaborative mini-series, Hina Solanki and Paul Lowe explore the six basic human needs, focussing on each in turn, in an attempt to better understand what motivates us as human beings.

This week, Hina and Paul explore the need for significance, otherwise known as the need to be recognised, and how it shapes our actions, our deeds, and our emotions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Everyone is different, and therefore everyone wants to feel special in different ways. This makes the quest for significance impossible to standardise or quantify.
  • Every challenge in life is put before us in order to shape us into the unique being we grow into. There are no failures, only lessons.
  • When we perform deeds from the heart, and for the love of doing it, we achieve significance. We are the sum total of the deeds we perform.
  • Sometimes the need for significance can manifest itself in more primal emotional outbursts. Even the rawest of emotions is our way of subconsciously asking for help.

BEST MOMENTS 

'Significance really is the quality of being worthy and special'

'Whatever we've gone through has made us what we are today'

'I am somebody and I have a part to play in this world'

'Love changes everything - how we live and how we die...'

ABOUT THE GUEST

Born into an Indian family, Hina came to the UK with her family at just 6 months old. Her parents were practising Hindus, and she grew up in a serene, philosophical household, laying the foundations for her spiritual, holistic philosophy and approach to life. Hina’s father was a businessman, ably and enthusiastically supported by her mother, and she has inherited her parents’ business acumen every bit as much as their spiritual focus.

ABOUT THE HOST

One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:

“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules.  You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”

Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity.

Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising.
