Detailed explanation-1: -The need for esteem is addressed in Abraham Maslow’s ‘Hierarchy of Needs’. Esteem is the fourth layer of Maslow’s five-tiered model of human motivation and is thought to be interrelated with the other levels of our needs (i.e. self-actualization, love/belonging, safety, and physiological needs).

Detailed explanation-2: -There are five levels in Maslow’s pyramid. From the bottom of the hierarchy upwards, the needs are: physiological (food and clothing), safety (job security), love and belonging needs (friendship), esteem, and self-actualization.

Detailed explanation-3: -These needs are related to the things we do to gain respect from our society, i.e., recognition, prestige, status, fame, etc. These include the internal esteem needs of self-respect i.e. self-confidence, physical strength, independence, competence, etc.

Detailed explanation-4: -Self-actualization needs are the highest level on Maslow’s pyramid of needs. These needs include realizing your potential, self-fulfillment, self-development, and peak experiences. Self-actualization is the desire to accomplish all that you can and unleash all your potential.
