The
Benefits of Belonging
Joining
a professional organization provides an
opportunity to meet others in your profession.
Some will have numerous years of experience,
while some are just beginning. Lifelong
friendships can be formed and your interests
expanded.
Many
people belonging to professional organizations
develop or discover leadership roles after they
have gained confidence with support from
association members. And, once you have
established confidence in yourself, and are able
to lead others in the field, you experience
personal gratification in your daily life. Thus,
losing those feelings of isolation, burnout,
and/or boredom.
And
even if you choose to not be a leader, you will
gain well-rounded experience, broaden your
horizons, and enjoy socializing with a new
family of friends. Your childcare problems will
seem less trivial and you'll develop a new sense
of importance after all, isn't that what
we're all looking for?

Belonging is one of the more basic
needs. It comes just below health
and safety on some 'self principles'
measurement. Being set at this level
indicates how fundamental the need to
belong is. It has been shown as being
above the need for esteem. This
shows how we first want to join a group,
then gain its esteem. And achieving this
goes a long way to contributing to our
health factor.
