Student Success Statement Thomas S. Monson

Student Success Statement

"Our very business in life is not to get ahead of others... but to get ahead of ourselves."

Thomas S. Monson 

I think this quote means that it doesn't matter if someone is ahead of you in something what really matter is that you're comfortable at where you are. There shouldn't be a competition between yourself and others because you have to do thinks that will help you be ahead and not do things that will make you be ahead of others. Everyone is different so at some point they're going to be different than you at something. that doesn't mean that you should try and have a competition, stay on your own pace and do what helps you be ahead of yourself. I agree with this quote so much because it's true because it's better to follow your own lead than others. You should just be yourself.

Student Success Statement Og Mandino

Student Success Statement

"True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse."

Og Mandino

I think this quote means that it doesn't matter how much money you carry around or how much power you have, what really matters is how you are inside. The only important thing is not the money it is your personality and how you are as a person. Money is not real wealth, real wealth is who you are.

Student Success Statement Sterling W. Sill

Student Success Statement 

"Real wealth is not so much what we have as what we are."

Sterling W. Sill

I think this quote means that money doesn't determine what we are but our personality does and who we are inside. We can have everything in the world but that doesn't show who you are. What's really important is that you are true to yourself. Material things are not important, those are just things you can buy but you can't buy who you truly are. That's why real wealth is who you are and not what you have. 





      

Acupuncture



Acupuncture

Duties and Responsibilities: Acupuncture is when practitioners stimulate specific points in the body by inserting thin needles through the skin. Acupuncture can help ease pain. For example, lower back pain, neck pain and knee pain. it can also help control migraines and prevent them from coming. Acupuncture helps you relieve stress.  
Salary: $52,000
Education: Masters Degree and Associates Degree is needed. Acupuncture takes 5-8 years of school.  

                                           

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not? 
I don't think i would like to be an acupuncture because it has to do with needles. I don't really like needles and it will be worse if i have to insert it into someone. The salary is good but i would like to work somewhere else. I personally don't think i would be the correct person to be an acupuncture because i don't really believe it will help with pain or believe it will don anything to help the person.

Student Success Statement Ezra T. Benson

Student Success Statement

 "You cannot do wrong and feel right. It is impossible."

Ezra T. Benson
 

I agree with this quote because i feel like it is correct. When you do something wrong you are later filled with regret. When you do something that's wrong you don't feel good at all. For example, when you are mean to someone later in the future you will keep thinking about that mistake and you'll probably regret it. You won't feel good after doing something wrong because there is nothing right about doing something wrong.

Acupressure



Acupressure

Duties and responsibilities: Acupressure is an ancient healing art using the fingers to gradually press key healing points. Acupressure releases tension, increases circulation and reduces pain. Acupressure only uses firm finger pressure. Acupressure therapy can be used to relieve pain. When the acupressure points are stimulated they release muscular tension and promote circulation of blood.
Salary: Median annual wage: $81,830 
Education: Master's Degree or First Professional Degree. 



Reflection: Would you like to be one? Why? Why not?
I wouldn't like to be one because i honestly don't believe in getting healed from acupressure. I remember when i was small i got one and nothing happened i still stayed the same. The salary wage is really good but i don't think I'm the type of person that would like to work for this. This is just not my thing.
