Beyond your basic physiological and safety needs, what are the most important needs in your life?
What are your thoughts on these seven human needs we’ve selected? Which would you keep and which would you replace?

I might replace comfort with hope. I could live without some things but I could not live without hope for a future or hope that my children will live in a world where they have hope.
Our greatest need is spiritual. We need Christ more than anything else. Why is he not on this list? Compassion International cannot gloss over Christ!
your right , I don’t understand why people do not seems to mention or even apply, add, or include Christ in their daily life, list or whatever like He is not exist but when they get to end of themselves, instead of yelling for help to their uncle, mom, dad, best friend or boyfrien, girlfriend, they call God, yell and mention Him. what do they get in result ? better than what they asked for or even more unexpected answer that they do not deserve.
This is straight out of Anthony Robins’ Six Human Needs with the addition of Belonging. Good stuff. My wife and I apply these in marriage coaching ministry. They help couples make sense of what changed about their relationship, why they feel how they do, and what can be addressed to better meet the needs of our spouses and sustain rich fulfilling marriages throughout life’s many stages. Preach on, but give Robin’s his due credit. It’s his original material
How about food, water and a roof over ‘their’ head? I’d replace almost all of your choices you selected. Just got back from Africa. Water is scarce and most children are fed only once a day. If this is about children in poverty, then my selections are valid but if you are talking about my needs, they are a little different. “Love your neighbor as yourself” would be number one.
