-Physiological needs: At the lowest level of the hierarchy and at the starting point for motivation are the physiological needs for water, air, food, sex, sleep, shelter and clothing. Those needs are vital to life and must be satisfied to maintain life. These are also described as primary needs. But other needs are secondary.

-Safety and security needs: After we satisfy our basic physical needs, we
then want security. We want to be free from physical danger and free from the loss of job, property, food, clothing and loss of livelihood.

-Social needs: we have satisfied safety needs our basic needs, we
then get interested in social activities. Since people are social beings, they
need to belong to be accepted or approved by others.

-Esteem Needs:Ego satisfaction: Once we begin to satisfy our need to
belong. We tend to want to be held in esteem both by. ourselves and by
others. This kind of need produces such satisfactions as power, prestige,
status, and self-confident.

-Self-realization-accomplishment: Maslow regards this as the highest need in his hierarchy.This involves developing ones abilities to the fullest. It's the desire to become what one is capable of becoming to maximize one's potential. And to accomplish something worth while. Maslow pointed out that the first three categories (physiological, safety, and social needs are lower level needs.
