Here's your shmoop du jour brought to you by fulfillment

00:07

something you can attain through extensive meditation or just by eating a [Girl meditating and turkey appears]

00:12

ton of turkey.... alright well with which of the following

00:17

statements would Carl Rogers agree and here are the potential answers...

00:22

00:27

Carl Rogers was a humanistic psychologist who [Man clutching a pen to Carl Rogers]

00:32

believe that every person could achieve their goals wishes and desires in life

00:35

and when they did so self actualization would take place in other words they

00:41

would achieve their ideal self and if your ideal self sits fully clothed in

00:46

the bathtub and eats ice cream out the carton well more power to you [Girl eating ice cream in bath tub]

00:49

actually I can relate to that yeah so could the correct answer be A - people

00:55

choose certain mates based on the ability of that mate to reproduce no

01:00

Rodgers probably wouldn't agree with this one

01:03

In his theory humans make choices to enhance their life experience and reach

01:07

self-actualization choosing a mate based solely on reproductive ability might [Man and woman holding babies]

01:11

lead to plenty of interesting things but probably not

01:16

self-actualization so let's cross off A... would Carl Rogers agree with C - fame

01:21

and glory drive confidence, while fame and glory while tempting to chase generally

01:26

don't fulfill us or lead to the ideal self in fact chasing after fame and

01:31

glory might lead us down the opposite path think Kardashians or any of the [Kim Kardashian appears]

01:35

Real Housewives how many of those stars look like they've reached their ideal

01:39

state of being yeah that's what we thought let's go ahead and get rid of C.

01:43

What about D - sensation seekers have high arousal thresholds doesn't seem

01:49

like a fit well arousal theory does not equal Carl Rogers psychology, totally

01:54

different subject it's like the guy wearing Tapout shirts, yeah you can spot [People in the street and man with tapout shirt appears]

01:59

it immediately and you know you want nothing to do with him...

02:02

alright let's ditch D so maybe E - biology alone determine success

02:07

well Rodgers believed that humans would flourish if they were given the right

02:11

environment like a flower in good soil unfortunately being born with the best [Flower appears in the forest]

02:15

biology doesn't mean you're going to be planted in the best soil ya dig? Anyway

02:20

Rodgers believed that environment was hugely important to success not just

02:23

biology so throw out E - That leaves us with B - people strive to be their best

02:27

which motivates behavior Carl Rogers believed that people were always working [Lego figure pushing a golf ball]

02:32

toward self-actualization or being the best they could be so it makes sense

02:35

that he would support this statement and B is the correct answer when thinking

02:39

about self-actualization just imagine a training montage in the sports movie [Person hitting punch bag]

02:43

someone wants to be the best in the world and then five minutes later boom

02:47

they are it's that easy everyone you know watch the Michael Phelps ad for [Man falls over in gym]

02:52

underarmor....
