Abstract

The aim of this article is to examine the orientation towards positive sources of development and creativity as well as boundaries and transgressions in the process of self-realization. This examination of the process of self-realization takes into account personal resources, potential and possibilities, and promotes a developmental vision of the person as an active being who creatively transforms the environment and themselves. A person’s motivation to pursue creative changes and to strive for achievements is related to human transgressiveness. The nature of self-realization according to Abraham Maslow is similar to Józef Kozielecki’s concept of transgression. It assumes that man is an active agent and that human agency is intentional, autonomous, and goal-oriented, and that it tends to transgress the existing possibilities. Halina Monika Wróblewska’s approach to self-realization, presented in this study, can help to the optimize human development and to make possible the expanding of the boundaries of the self. A person will embrace his or her creative competences through the process of self-realization and thanks to transgressive activities.
