Psychology: Maslow, the Self-Actualized Person, & Weekend Homework

Directions:  Read the article below, and seek to understand (through Maslow's own words!) what the 12 characteristics of the Self-Actualized person looks like.  After, think of a person in your life who you believe to be as close to Maslow's concept of the Self-Actualized Person.  Type up a letter to them and explain in the letter how their behaviors and life experience make them a Self-Actualized person and how they've attained this status, according to Maslow. When you are finished, share your work with me and also share the letter with them this weekend if you can. You'll make their day....trust me!
