“If you plan on being anything less than you are capable of being, you will probably be unhappy all the days of your life.” –Abraham Maslow There are certain basic needs we have for survival. We need water, shelter, food, and clothing. If you’re reading this now I imagine you have those needs met. (And no the internet is not one of those needs).

But, what about beyond those basic needs? Isn’t there something we need at a much deeper but still fundamental level?

What you may not realize is that we also have basic needs when it comes to living a happy and fulfilling life. Similar to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, as we get our basic needs met, we start to focus on other needs that are more existential in nature.

These needs are belonging, mastery, independence, and contribution.

Belonging

We are social animals. You, I, and everyone else has a need to connect with others and be accepted. Having a support network of friends and family is crucial for our well-being and success. We can’t go at it alone. We need support, encouragement, appreciation, assistance, and a sense that we are a part of a group or community.

“Hold your true friends with both your hands.” – Nigerian proverb

Mastery

In living life we need to feel a sense of achievement and mastery in what we do. When we have mastery we feel proud and accomplished. We feel a sense of self-control and self-trust. A belief emerges that we have what it takes to do what needs to be done in order to reach our goals. Mastery comes through practice and making mistakes, but as it emerges, new possibilities appear and we start to set our sights higher.

Independence

This is a feeling of being responsible, or finally growing up and dealing with life. On the other side of the spectrum would dependence where we are relying on others instead of living from our own self-identity. We want to have emotional intimacy with others, but it is also important to have a clear self-identity that allows us to thrive independent of others. This involvesclarifying and living from our personal values, beliefs, and convictions.

“The price of greatness is responsibility.” – Winston Churchill

Contribution

This is about giving and sharing of yourself. We all enjoy giving to others and helping them feel happy. There are many ways to contribute. We can contribute time, money, and energy in countless ways to countless different causes. We can create something that improves peoples’ lives. Or we may contribute by raising healthy and prosocial children. Explore how you can serve and contribute to others and the world around you.

Where do you stand on these four needs? What else would you include as universal needs for happiness and fulfillment?

Which of these is recommended as a natural shelter if lost?

Look for a natural shelter, such as a rock overhang or a thick stand of evergreens. The site should be dry and well drained and offer protection from the wind.

A lean-to can be built using tools from a field-dressing kit.

Start preparing your camp well before dark.

Look for a natural shelter, such as a rock overhang or a thick stand of evergreens. The site should be dry and well drained and offer protection from the wind. Ideally, it also should be near water and plenty of firewood. If no natural shelter is available, pick an area with materials nearby to build a lean-to or debris hut. A lean-to is constructed by leaning branches against a horizontal support to form a frame for a roof. Be sure to position the opening away from the wind. Cover the frame with evergreen branches to block out wind or precipitation. If you brought a haul line with you, use it to bind the branches in place. Leaves and twigs may be heaped on top of the branches. If you need additional protection, add side walls. If you are in a snowy area, you might consider building a snow cave.

Lifesaving Rainwear

Most hunters carry a set of lightweight, soft rainwear in their packs at all times. This extra set of clothing can be a true lifesaver if you become lost. It serves as an outer layer to insulate and protect your body from wind. In addition, if your regular clothing becomes wet, you'll have something to protect your body while you dry your clothes. You can survive for a long time in a wilderness situation—even without food—if you can make a shelter, build a fire, and dry your clothing.
