The gentleman who is self-actualized truly understands the difficulty of being a gentleman. We run into issues were we know for a fact that there are moments where it might hinder the advancement of the situation that we might be in. The fact is, the point of life is to get to that point, and begin to change the world in making the life of a gentleman easier. You’ll often interact with people who have no understanding of Maslow’s hierarchy of Needs and will not understand this first journey of life. A gentleman might not be at that high point of self actualization, but they are definitely on the path to that outcome as they work on bettering themselves. This is a sure sign that they will be accept the facts of where they came from, not be angry at their flaws and move forward.

Money is something that we must have to survive. Without it we cannot accomplish the very first step of the hierarchy of needs. Understanding that life can be enjoyed without the use of money is one of the hardest steps to accomplish in life. Obtaining income is the most useful step for preservation of life and increases the possibility of reproduction. Even if our goal in life is not to bring someone else into the world, our main goal is only self preservation. Without financial responsibility it becomes increasingly difficult to become stable at a later time in our lives.

Living life through inanimate objects is where people in my age range have the most trouble. We have expensive habits and a failing economy to deal with simultaneously. Most of us feel at a loss if we are not the owner of what is hot or new, and it is socially personified through our personality. When it comes to the simple needs in life, we also focus on obtaining the objects that have a higher status then what may be below it. Things like clothing and cars, are something a gentleman needs to make sure is not over-showing their income level. It may appear, or they may say that they are into this for their own happiness, but just like bodybuilding; these things were pressed on to you through a society that is directly influenced by marketing and media.

This indirectly helps the mental understanding of the gentleman. The hard work of mental stability is never conversed with whomever the gent is interacting with, but through this growth he is accepted at a higher level than average individuals.
