Detailed Explanation
According to Abraham Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory, human needs are divided into two main categories—Deficiency needs (D-needs such as physiological and safety needs) and Growth needs (B-needs). 'Self-Actualization' is the topmost stage of this hierarchy, which is not associated with fulfilling a deficiency, but rather with the indomitable desire to achieve the limitless abilities, creativity, and complete development hidden within an individual.
