Sin tener nada que ver con la satisfacción pero teniendo algo que ver con la motivación el término autorrealización se utiliza para hacer lo que quieras sin hacer nada Lo introdujo originalmente Kurt Goldstein, teórico organísmico, para hacer alusión a la realización del potencial del propio individuo. La expresión de la propia creatividad, la búsqueda de la iluminación espiritual, la búsqueda del conocimiento y el deseo de darle a la sociedad son ejemplos de autorrealización. Desde el punto de vista de Goldstein, se trata del motivo principal del organismo, el único motivo real: "la tendencia a realizarse a sí mismo tanto como sea posible es el impulso básico... el impulso de autorrealización."es la motivación verdadera

Self-actualization is a term that has been used in various psychology theories, often in slightly different ways. The term was originally introduced by the organismic theorist Kurt Goldstein for the motive to realize one's full potential. Expressing one's creativity, quest for spiritual enlightenment, pursuit of knowledge, and the desire to give to society are examples of self-actualization. In Goldstein's view, it is the organism's master motive, the only real motive: "the tendency to actualize itself as fully as possible is the basic drive... the drive of self-actualization." Carl Rogers similarly wrote of "the curative force in psychotherapy – man's tendency to actualize himself, to become his potentialities... to express and activate all the capacities of the organism." The concept was brought most fully to prominence in Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory as the final level of psychological development that can be achieved when all basic and mental needs are essentially fulfilled and the "actualization" of the full personal potential takes place, although he adapted this viewpoint later on in life, and saw it more flexibly. Self-actualization can be seen as similar to words and concepts such as self-discovery, self-reflection, self-realisation and self-exploration. As Abraham Maslow noted, the basic needs of humans must be met (e.g. food, shelter, warmth, security, sense of belonging) before a person can achieve self-actualization – the need to be good, to be fully alive and to find meaning in life. Research shows that when people live lives that are different from their true nature and capabilities, they are less likely to be happy than those whose goals and lives match. For example, someone who has inherent potential to be a great artist or teacher may never realize his/her talents if their energy is focused on attaining the basic needs of humans.
