Abraham Maslow, at the end of his life, privately admitted to his friend that only 1% of people achieved self actualisation.

That’s a low number: only 1 in 100 people reach their true potential during their lifetimes.

I was shocked when I learned this.

It seemed too low… too elitist.

Do you think Maslow was right?

Do most people fail to reach their potential?

More importantly… are you the 1 in 100?

P.S. I don’t know if Maslow was precisely right, maybe only approximately. Ken Wilber estimates it’s no more than 10 in 100 reaching Integral Level, and other consciousness researchers consistently estimate around the 5-10% mark. I want to read the comments here… will be interesting.
