The two states of being: surviving and thriving

  • Surviving. It is looking after our basic need for food, shelter, and companionship.
  • Thriving. This state attempts to make something of ourselves beyond meeting our basic needs. This state makes us feel like we are living up to our true self, to our potential. For most people, this means challenging themselves to be more of who their core dictate they could and should be.
