Ironically, @fundition posted this article about the Maslow Hierachy of Needs @beinconstrained. Notice how they mention that the Hierachy is flexible, and that more than one need can be motivating us to take action.
Giving increases my self-esteem and @fundition enables people to give through upvotes on the Steem blockchain!
Giving through Fundition could help them fulfill the self-esteem, but not only that, it could also help to transcend ourselves and to achieve another need.
But I'd like to add that Giving doesn't necessarily mean money, it could be a smile, some kind words and knowledge, those are also forms of giving :)
Have a nice day.
-Greetings Miemie from the Fundition team.Hello @chrisrice ! I think the Hierarchy isn't a strict one at all. I've seen people who have no need for security such as employment and house but need pride and esteem much more (thinking about my patients actually).
