We are not taught how to figure out & effectively communicate our basic needs.
However, these core needs impact every area of life. They are at the basis of all human behavior.
Being able to understand & apply this simple wisdom has been easily the most valuable “low hanging fruit” life skill Pete has learned for getting what you truly want in life.
In the episode, he brings in a fun analogy to demonstrate the ridiculousness of how most people go about getting their needs met. He explores:
- What are some basic needs that all humans have?
- How an inability to know & communicate your needs leads to most of the disagreements & arguments you may encounter in business & relationships.
- What is the true impact of never effectively learning to understand your basic needs?
- Pete’s favourite resources for learning more about “needs” & how to apply this knowledge to your own life.
This episode is a great blueprint and will hopefully help you greatly uplevel your quality of communication, and thus quality of life in all areas!
