Student Success Statement

“Our very business in life is not to get ahead of others… but to get ahead of ourselves.”

Thomas S. Monson 

Reflection: I think this quote means that we should not worry about other people being ahead of us, but to just worry about how you are doing individual. 

  Duties and Responsibilities: Allopathic physicians diagnose and treat conditions that affect every area of the body Medical doctors also perform check-ups to screen for any developing medical conditions and diseases and to prevent illness. Doctors then develop treatment plans using prescriptions medications, surgery, and other treatment methods.

Salary: 100,000-300,000$

Education: Other than teaching manipulation, undergraduate medical training for an osteopathic degree (D.O) is now virtually indistinguishable from that which leads to the M.D. degree.

Reflection: I probably would not be one because the job looks boring but you get paid very well. This type of job is not in my interest to become or study to be one.

“True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse.”

Og Mandino

Reflection: I think he means that money might not be the real wealth, but love is.

Allergist / Immunologist

Duties and Responsibilities: An allergist is a medical doctor, who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of allergic disease, most of which is caused by outside irritants that trigger immune responses in the body. Most allergists are also immunologists, meaning that they are responsible not only for figuring out what allergens may be causing your symptoms but also for developing a program of immunization designed to help resist those agents.

Salary: 100,000-300,000$ 

Education: M.D (Doctor of Medicine) and the lesser the known D.O (Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine)

Reflection: I would probably not mind becoming an allergist because you get paid well and it does not look like a boring job to be in or take.

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

Sterling W. Sill

Reflection: I think that Sterling W. Sill is trying to say that even though you are rich and have everything you want you might not always be happy and if you are not that rich you still might live a happier life than the others.Money might not always bring you happiness.

Acupuncture

Duties and Responsibilities: Doctors of acupuncture use implements such as herbs and needles to restore the energy flow and relieve injuries and pain in patients. The underlying tenet in acupuncture is that pain or illness develops when there is an interruption in the body energy.

Salary: 75,000-80,000$ each year

Education: You have to have a master’s degree and they put you in a master’s program that teaches you different treating methods. Once you have your master’s, you have to study for around 3-4 years.

Reflection: I would not like to become an acupuncture because it does not sound like an interesting job for me. I would rather get a job that is not that boring and that would teach me interesting things. 

Acupressure

Duties and responsibilities: Acupressure is an ancient healing art using the fingers to gradually press key healing points, which stimulate the body's natural self-curative abilities. Using the power and sensitivity of the hand, Acupressure Therapy is effective in the relief of stress-related ailments. Acupressure therapy can be used to relieve pain, fortify the sexual reproductive system, detoxify the body for greater health and beauty, and tone facial and back muscles.Salary: 31,000-81,830

Education: Students in acupressure classes need to learn how to use fingers instead of needles to achieve greater health. Students with a background or Chinese medicine can enroll in a specialized acupressure program, which usually involves 150 to 250 hours of study. Students can earn certification as a Bodywork Therapist (ABT) through the American Organization of Bodywork Therapist of Asia (AOBTA).

“Decisions determine destiny”

Thomas S. Monson

 

I think that “Decisions determine destiny” might mean a lot to some people because it might lead to good results. Some may not have the same opinion and not like the idea as the ones that do. I think just doing the right choices will reflect to you and give you a good destiny but if you do some bad choices it’s also going to reflect to you but in a bad way.
