Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs:

This is a theory developed by Abraham Maslow which describes 5 levels of human needs. These needs are arranged in a pyramid structure, in ascending order of importance. The basic needs are located at the bottom. The 5 needs are Physiological (food, water), Safety (security of body), Love/Belonging ( friendship), Esteem (confidence), and Self-Actualization (morality, creativity). The needs closer to the top are needs we should all strive to achieve, but they are not necessary to survive.
