Maslow's Hierarchy Of Needs

[Will]

ANy views on jumping stages..

I have not sorted out belonging and love yet, but I am making significant progress in esteem??

Should it be around the other waY.

I just think that you should feel good about yourself before you kind find you place in the world??

I like your hesitation and question...

It is possible to make progress at all levels at the same time, just step by step. So you can strengthen your self-esteem in many ways, while you are still sorting out belonging and love. 

However, to achieve a stable self-esteem level requires meeting the need of love and belonging. And it doesn't necessarily mean friendships and family, but first of all love and acceptance towards yourself, and further meaningful relationships with others where love and belonging can manifest.

Then up to the level of "finding your place in the world" and building stable esteem.
