Life Essentials
Before we get set on the path to bigger goals in life, it's important to nail down the things that help us be our best selves. At MTW, we think of these as life essentials, and securing them is an important piece of your promotion through the model.
step #1: place needs in a hierarchy
It can be helpful to think of needs as in a hierarchy: some have to come before others.
This video explains the concept of Maslow's Pyramid, one way to explain how we can rank our needs.
step #2: start at the bottom
When you become an associate at MTW, you make a commitment to securing life essentials you need to be able to show up to your job. These life essentials start with the bottom two rows: resources and materials that secure your basic needs.
As a Partner at MTW, you will begin to focus on the top half of the pyramid: things that help you move towards your goals as a person.
step #3: find out what you already have
Using our Life Essentials Module, you will assess what you already have and what you want to work on getting. Once you review this with your YDM, they can help you create a plan to get the rest.
