One cardinal issue that many of you may deal with is money.
I could bs around this, but I won’t.
If you have a money issue, that is the first thing you want to handle.
Why? Because when your livelihood is threatened, nothing else matters. Not even your health.
Maslow, a 20th century psychologist set up a pyramid-like hierarchy… and the base of the pyramid is the physical needs… unless your physical needs are met, you won’t be fully available to fulfill other needs.
The second level is safety needs. Until safety needs are met, you are not available to fulfill other needs like emotional needs, or self-actualization needs.
Which means that when you have a financial issue threatening your physical being, you need to deal with it.
