			Self-Awareness and Acceptance: A good person is deeply self-aware, with a clear sense of their strengths, weaknesses, and values. They accept themselves and others without judgment and show an ability to embrace imperfections and complexities.

			Authenticity: Maslow's good person is genuine, honest, and true to themselves. They do not conform to social expectations simply for approval but instead act in alignment with their inner principles and values.

			Creativity and Spontaneity: A self-actualized, "good" person is open to experiences, adaptable, and creative. They approach life with curiosity and a fresh perspective, often engaging in creative pursuits and problem-solving in unique ways.

			Altruism and Compassion: Maslow believed that self-actualized individuals naturally extend compassion, empathy, and kindness to others. They experience what he called "B-love" (Being-love), a form of love that is unconditional, accepting, and non-possessive, reflecting a mature, unselfish approach to relationships.

			Autonomy and Independence: A good person in Maslow’s view is not overly dependent on others for approval or validation. They have a strong sense of inner direction and autonomy, meaning they are capable of making decisions based on their principles rather than external pressures.

			Purpose and Meaning: Good people seek purpose beyond material or superficial gains, driven instead by intrinsic values, a sense of mission, or a calling. Maslow saw this as part of "transcendence," where individuals are motivated by self-actualization and, ultimately, by values that serve humanity as a whole.

			Ethical and Moral Integrity: Maslow noted that good people are guided by strong internal ethics and a sense of justice. They have a clear moral compass and a commitment to higher values, often desiring to improve the world around them.

			Peak Experiences: Good people often experience "peak experiences," moments of profound joy, connection, or insight that contribute to their sense of meaning and wholeness. These experiences help deepen their appreciation for life and foster a sense of unity with others and the world.
