Abraham Maslow was an American philosopher who was born in the early 1990 's in Brooklyn, New York. He was one of the leading theorists that promoted humanistic psychology during his era. Maslow sought to understand what motivates and inspires individuals. He theorized that individuals possess and hold a group of motivation and incentive systems not related to plunder or insensible desires. Maslow declared that people are motivated and provoked to attain certain needs. When one need is fulfilled a person seeks to fulfill the next one, and so on. The earliest version of Maslow 's hierarchy of needs includes five motivational needs, often viewed as hierarchical levels inside a pyramid. The five stage representation can be separated into basic needs and growth needs. The deficiency or basic needs are said to motivate and stimulate individuals when they are unmet and not fully attained. Also, the desire to fulfill and accomplish such wants and needs will become stronger the longer the duration they are denied. Once these needs have been relatively satisfied, an individual may be capable of reaching the highest level of the pyramid called self-actualization. Maslow though that self actualization is a state that exists when an individual is acting in harmony with his or her full capabilities. In Cormac McCarthy 's novel, The Road, we will examine the character 's physical journey towards self-actualization on Maslow
Psychologist Abraham Maslow created Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, a list of necessary needs in order to live with healthy mental. The levels are physiological, safety, love, esteem, and self-actualization. Physiological deals with survival needs which include food, shelter, and water. Safety is the need to be secure from danger, a shelter or safe environment. Love is the is need for affection and belongingness, friends and family. Esteem is the personal worth, success and achievements. Self-actualization is actualizing one’s potential and what you are capable of. According to Maslow, the most important level is physiological and is needed for survival.
According to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs theory, all humans have different levels of needs that we need to fulfill in order to survive. Self -actualization, self esteem, love, safety, physiological all things that people need for survival and throughout Othello many characters had these needs met. Desdemona became self - actualized and finally realized her full potential when she stood up for herself and expressed her love for Othello in Act 1 she said to her father “ I do perceive here a divided duty.. ..I may profess Due to the Moor my lord.” ( 1.iii.182-185). Roderigo found safety through Iago's’ constant reassurance “ It is as sure as you Roderigo” (1.i.58). Brabantio has a high self esteem, never doubting one word he said, never needing
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs is used to analyze motivation of consumers, which are composed of 5 five stages. From the lowest level to the highest one respectively are physiological, safety, belongingness, ego needs, and self-actualization. (Solomon and Barmossy et al., 2006)
Throughout life, one’s personality is a very important aspect of that individual’s wellbeing. Such characteristics are not only used by others in attempts to understand their peers, but also determine one’s own satisfaction and view of themselves. People are always attempting to change who they are for the better, in efforts to live a more satisfying and self-fulfilling life through achieving higher personal needs. With that said, when studying the psychological basis behind one’s development and change in personality, one specific theory and stance seems to explain this phenomenon of bettering one’s self; that of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs.
Past, on the eve of July 25th A little mixed Asian baby boy was born, on the island of Hawaii.

Abraham Maslow proposed Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs in 1943. Within this theory he stated that people must achieve certain needs and that some of those needs take priority over others. He also went on to state that you must satisfy your lower level needs before you can meet higher-level growth needs. There are five stages to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs starting from physiological needs, safety, love/belonging, esteem and finally, self-actualization. Health is considered a safety need, which is the second stage of needs that must be met after the physiological needs (Werby, 2013). Aboriginals across Canada have poor access to health care, which hinders the growth and development of future populations. This paper will compare the Aboriginal and Western approach to medicine, the lack of representation from Aboriginal communities on health surveys and censuses and the effects of the social determinants of health on Aboriginal communities.

In social and political turmoil, certain human rights and needs are argued in the name of progress. There are debates of the necessity of freedom versus safety for people, such as long lines at airport security, seemingly tedious, but protecting from threats unseen by the public. One such person who discussed these needs was H.L. Menchen, a journalist and critic of the popular American life. He once said “The average man does not want to be free. He simply wants to be safe,” which highlights both his argument and the discussion itself, while launching new tangents of debate. Despite the call and thirst for freedom reflected in media and revolutions throughout the world and history, Menchen’s claims about the human need for safety are true, because despite the constant promotion of freedom in society, to survive one must have safety.
