The Six Human Needs: Certainty - Paul D. Lowe & Hina Solanki

In the second part of their ongoing collaborative mini-series, Hina Solanki and Paul Lowe explore the six basic human needs, focussing on each in turn, in an attempt to better understand what motivates us as human beings.

This week, Hina and Paul explore the need for certainty, what it means to each of us, and why it's critical to our ability to create pleasure for others.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

Certainty manifests itself as a need for security, safety and assurance. It is our need to feel in control, to know what's coming next. It serves our need for predictability.
By feeling secure and safe in ourselves, we allow ourselves the ability to create that sense of happiness and safety in others. Therefore, by establishing our own certainty, we generate certainty for the world around us.
We are the constant creators of our own story. We filter and discard the things that are unpleasant to look at, and build our narratives from the positive elements of our lives.
We must let go of the past if we are to embrace our futures. By holding on to the past, and to the regrets we harbour because of that past, we open ourselves up to fear.

BEST MOMENTS

'It's such a critical area in all our lives, even if we're not aware of it'

'The higher the need for certainty, the less risk we're willing to take'

'All beliefs are false. It's something we as individuals have decided is true'

'Things in life take you off course sometimes, that's completely normal. You need to re-ground yourself'

ABOUT THE GUEST

Born into an Indian family, Hina came to the UK with her family at just 6 months old. Her parents were practising Hindus, and she grew up in a serene, philosophical household, laying the foundations for her spiritual, holistic philosophy and approach to life. Hina’s father was a businessman, ably and enthusiastically supported by her mother, and she has inherited her parents’ business acumen every bit as much as their spiritual focus.

ABOUT THE HOST

One thing that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – something he is totally aware of.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned the iconic ‘Think Different’ Apple commercial narrated by Steve Jobs in 1977:

 “Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules.  You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do!”

Paul has a long and distinguished history of coaching & mentoring – particularly focusing on helping people make the transition from pain to purpose; a journey he has made himself, from the depths of a deep dark existence, to now living a life of happiness and prosperity.

Through this Mastering The Game Of Life podcast, and books he has been involved in – including being a best-selling co-author – Paul also helps others to get their own inspirational messages and stories out into the world; as well as offering support to many charitable organisations, in their development & fund-raising.
