Why it stuck
The famous needs pyramid — I think about it every time a project fails because nobody’s basic ‘clear requirements’ need was met, let alone ‘self-actualization via cool model.’
My take
Maslow basically proves that until I get 8 hours of sleep and a working coffee machine, I’m not becoming the advanced analytics guru I tell LinkedIn I am.
