I don’t think it’s circular reasoning. more like kicking the can down the road, instead of deciding needs, you need to decide goals. but once you have a goal it helps determining the needs. So it’s a different framing that can help a bit to untangle the mess. Maslow is also just 4 goals in a hierarchy and then the needs for each of them.
As for how to decide on goals, idk, that changes all the time and I don’t think there’s any hard set rule to figure that out. In the end it’s all just made up 🤷 But I think asking yourself “what are my goals in life” is more productive than asking yourself “what do I need”, at least it comes more naturally to me.

I think I see what you mean. It’s searching for a vision that makes intuitive sense, no?

Also, thank you for explaining
Yes I think that summarizes it nicely 🙂
