Motivation Theories
With motivation at an all-time low, it is essential to find a theory that helps boost morale in police departments around the United States. One of the theories that would be beneficial for a police department would be Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs theory. This theory focuses on a pyramid of needs. This theory focuses on physiological needs first which include excretion, breathing, water, food, sleep, homeostasis, and sex (NorthCentral University, 2023.) Once these needs are achieved, they go up the pyramid to security and safety needs (NorthCentral University, 2023). This would include the safety and security needs of the officer’s family, their health, and morality (NorthCentral University, 2023.)

Assignment: Composing an Electronic Memo
I had to create a solution to a fake scenario in this assignment. There is a trigger warning that this does talk about sexual harassment. I also do not support officers who engage in these behaviors and only had this memo play out this way for the benefit of the assignment to show the proper management that would work out of the three options. I firmly believe that any individual caught driving drunk or engaging in sexual harassment should face the consequences of their actions.

Goals and Missions of a Criminal Justice Agency
First, I am super excited to share that my absence resulted from my graduating with my Master’s degree! It was a wild ride, for sure. Thanks to a few individuals here on Medium, I decided to pursue my doctoral degree. Like before, I will be sharing my papers on which I got A’s, except I am expanding this to B’s as well because I need to be less hard on myself. After all, I am working hard to better myself, and I need to realize that B’s are just as important as A’s. Sharing knowledge is excellent, and I hope you all learn something from my assignments.

Barnabus's Failed Assassination
Today is the day. The day I was supposed to assassinate the prince. I started by putting poison in his wine at dinner when he looked away. I felt so accomplished! The table was full of people, and no one saw me. I knew I was in the clear. However, he rested his chin on his hand when he turned around, smirking down at his glass. This only made me frown in complete confusion. Why was he grinning? Did he know? It couldn't be. I was so careful. But then I noticed his eyes meet mine, and he gave me a quick wink before slyly switching his cup with the person next to him, which happened to be his right hand. As I watched him pick up his drink and take a sip, I could feel the terror surface while my eyes widened. As he started to choke out blood, the whole table began to panic and run while others tried to help him.

#2,435 Part II
Log: #3,286 Name: #2,435 Date: February 9th, 2017 For the past sixteen years, I have had to hide my journal. Tomorrow I turn thirty, which means it is my release date. When the new recruits came and went over the last sixteen years, and I tried not getting attached; however, I did. Tonight I am securing a way to sneak out the twins. They are only toddlers, but I cannot leave them behind. #2,908 has agreed to help me sneak them out. Like I stated 16 years ago when we are 30, we graduate and become millionaires; however, I am worth $2.9 billion when I am released. I learned that certain behaviors gained us money for when we left. Over the last sixteen years, I witnessed what a factory reset meant. I lost count, but I promise you that we heard nightly screams weren't just that one lady.

Trauma is Real
As an overachiever, I constantly push myself harder than I should. When many think of an overachiever, they think of someone who achieves success and goes above the norm. However, overachieving for me looks messy. A lot of late nights pushing myself to the brink of exhaustion. On the outside, I look superhuman (or so I am told). I get many ‘compliments’ “Wow, I am so proud of you!” and “You’re such an inspiration!”. I know that these are meant to lift me and feel a sense of self-accomplishment; however that is not how it is delivered.
