Maslow Was A Poser!!!

28 Dec

With Christmas behind us and the New Year is coming fast I find myself not sure what may come of 2012. I’m certainly ready to move into the 2012 and leave 20111 in the rear view mirror. In this up-coming year I have few different thoughts and ideas that will allow me to move back home, but ways to stay busy and productive. This past year has had neither of the two. I had way too much time on my hands which was tough. And, finding something to be apart of and finding that feeling that I am doing something productive with my life. As much as I love the coffee shop, I would like a little more. Of course, be careful what you wish for as you just may get it? And, getting sucked back to the corporate grind is certainly something I’d like to avoid, as they do call it the corporate grind for a reason. But, I do have a few ideas heading into the New Year. However, there are few other needs that I need in my life as well. Which leads me to Maslow and his Hierarchy Of Needs, and what things I need toward heading into 2012. Things that aren’t materialistic in nature, but the other things an individual needs in one’s life.
Maslows_Hierarchy_Of_Needs

Using Good Ole’ Maslow and his hierarchy of needs for guidance I do have a number of different needs in life. First on the list would be to get financially caught up. Getting back to a home of my own, unfortunately I need some kind of income, or can’t move back to my place. Currently lawyer fee’s prevent that, which is entirely different issue at the moment. Also, on the Maslow’s needs list would be feeling better physically, I’ve said this before, but it really seems as things are still getting better. I don’t know why, the pain issue seems to continue to get better, and then spike with an overall improvement month-over-month. So, I’m not sure how much better it’ll get, but the ups and downs have been hard on me as much physically as mentally. So, I work on what I can, when I can. If things continue to improve with the pain issue the further and farther I will be able I go in 2012, and definitely an on-going issue with me. Pretty much everything in the “Safety” Arena is something I need to work towards in 2012. In the “Physiological” arena I still struggle with my sleep, however, it is far better than a year ago. There was another issue I had related to Physiological level, fortunately things seemed to have made a complete right turn and at the moment not something I’m worried about, and hopefully it stays that way. So, in 2012 I am definitely working on a whole list things in Maslow’s level 2 of life. As, I work on that list of needs in my life my in 2012, there are some things that not related to Maslow that I would like. As, I’m boy that likes his toys. And, sadly I do have a list short list of things I’d like to get at some point in the future. Ah, lists….you never can too many lists!!!!!!!???????

As, we all have our lists in life. The grocery list, to do list, honey-do list, Bucket list, my story list, Christmas lists, List of DOs and Don’ts, `work related lists, and so on. And there is the endless top whatnots lists created by media and information outlets. Not to forget the Letterman Top Ten lists and my own versions. And, now I’m adding one more list, to the list of lists? This would be a poser list. Poser coming from the once used term to define a “wannabe”. This list is a “wannahave” list. As, the items on this list fall under the want category, and no sense of need. Luxury items, if you will. And, if I can get past the financial problem these are things that I’d like to get for myself. If an one of my ideas’s actually pans out it would allow me to get one or two the the below items. So, without further delay here are the needless wants of my life. The things you day-dream about after buy a lottery ticket. You get the point?
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
POSER LIST 1.0 – In No Particular Order
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________
1] IPHONE; Thanks to the bro this one is already full-filled. Thanks Bro, and family.
Plugging Back Into SkyNet!!!!!????
2] A MACBOOK PRO. My current one works fine, but she been run hard the past few years. Ideally, the uber-super fast one with all the bells and whistles. also, I would actually need an upgrade if my most realistic idea in 2012 does pan out. I brought it up with my Vocational Rehab person thru my LTD and I got a positive response. As, things move forward and if it does get some traction I will definitely update you on that. I’m actually pretty excited about it. I don’t wanna jinx it, so you’ll going to have to wait for further details. I think it would be something that would be good not only for me, but other’s as well.

3] A LASHER 29′ER; The picture speaks for it’s self.

Lasher's Handcycle with 29 inch rims.

4] BIG BUCK HUNTER; I’ve never been a video game guy, but I saw an television advertisement for a home version of the game. I freaking love that game. That was a huge reason I would to go to the Trailhead in Fort Fun while attending CSU. If I ever win the lottery, I’m getting the arcade version.

5] OAKLEY JAWBONE SUNGLASSES WITH A SET OF PRESCRIPTION LENSES; Ok, first this one has huge and needless tangent, whoops. I could have gotten a pair with my AmEx rewards, but they were a liveStrong version, and I just couldn’t do it. I don’t want take take anything away from what he as done for cancer research, but Greg Lemond is my cycling hero. I grew up with cycling as big part of my life and long before Lance started to win in France. I’ll just leave it at that for the moment. Plus, they would match my merse, hee hee. OK, first my merse. Please notice the strap for carrying. The key component to a merse. It’s actually a perfect bag for carrying my laptop, drawing notebook, and things I need when I go to my coffee shop. Besides, I hear accessorizing is important??? And, lastly my sunglasses are the one item I take care of in life, and the only so investing in a nice pair of sunglasses is reasonable. I still have a pair from when I was in Texas four years ago.

Now this would be a merse, or man-purse...dangn't..


AND, NOW THE SUNGLASSES.

I'd definitely get the black one's

6] COMMERCIAL LEVEL VIDEO CAMERA; This is truly not needed, but it allow me to take my video’s to a whole new level, and then some. I figure if I’m going to put together a list of things I want I might as well commit to it.

7] RC HELICOPTER WITH MD FUSELAGE; They are truly a lot of fun. It this would bring a smile to my face!!! This one is near the top as far a possible and level of want.

8] A FLYING MACHINE FOR GETTING VIDEO; This would be cool, as I could really get some cool shots. And, this would literally take any video I do to a whole new level.

I figure that should be enough for the moment. And, since we didn’t win the Powerball this week I’m going have to wait a bit longer. So, there you go. The wanted in my life!!!

As this concludes my broadcast day!!
