S.S.S

" What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player." 
                                                         - John Wooden
 In my perspective this quote reveals, or is trying to say that it does not matter how your lifestyle is as a player but how your lifestyle is when you are not stepping on the court while dribbling a basketball. What really matters is if you can also achieve goals, or already have things settled in life. You must have the same capability to do things you want to achieve even when it comes to not being on the court playing basketball. I believe john wooden's quote is eligible, and can really make you think twice about your way of life or goals.

dental assistant

                           Dental assistant
Duties and responsibilities: Dental assistants have more than one responsibility throughout their work day. Dental assistants may seat patients in the treatment area, pass requested instruments to the dentist during dental procedures, sterilize and prepare an instrument needed. They can also polish clinical crowns, and developed x-rays. A last interesting thing that assistant dentist may do is take impressions of teeth for study models. Assistant dentist have many duties and these are just a few. The dental assistant is a multi-skilled member of the dental health team, dedicated to assisting the dentist with all phases of dentistry.
Salary: A dental assistant’s median pay (annual) is 34,500
Education:  Dental Assisting programs tend to focus solely on technical training through classroom, laboratory and clinical instruction. Some states require assistants to graduate from an accredited program and pass a state exam. Most programs are offered by community colleges, take about 1 year to complete, and lead to a certificate or diploma. Programs that last 2 years, also offered in community colleges, are less common and lead to an associate’s degree.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

No, I do not think I would like to become a Dental Assistant because a dental assistant is focused on teeth and in my perspective I would not enjoy to be in this career. I have different perspectives and likes, and this is not one of them. Although dentist assistants are a big part of a dentist’s job, I don’t think I would give it my all if I wasn’t really interested. I see myself doing another type of career even though a dentist assistant is great for any other person that would really enjoy this job.

Pathros

" True wealth is of the heart not of the purse ." - Pathros
 I believe that this quote is relevant, this is because in some scenarios people who have a lot of money or everything they want are sometimes not happy at all. For example, if a little girl gets everything she wants, like toys including barbie, dollhouses and etcetera, that little girl might not truly be happy although she gets anything she desires, the reason why, might be because her parents are probably always busy and never give her attention or time, or maybe she has no one to play with. People who believe wealth is everything there's to it are wrong, because you cannot buy everything by being wealthy.

When people are wealthy of course they can buy any materialistic stuff but no one can buy trust kindness , and many other things that are way more valuable, with money. People who are wealthy may be happy as well, but sometimes there's stuff that money cannot solve for you. In my opinion a person with wealth in their heart is way more valuable than one with wealth in the purse. The reason why is because if you don't have wealth in your heart as well than what's the point.

Dentist

                                             Dentist
Duties and responsibilities: dentist examines patients through observation and use of equipment and tools such as dental mirrors, picks and X-ray machines. He looks for immediate repairs, such as cavities and fractures. He also looks for early signs of future problems, and indicators of deeper issues, such as wearing, small cracks in the enamel and chips. He examines the gums, mouth, tongue palette and temporomandibular joints, which are on both side of your head in front of your ears, for abnormalities including lumps, sores, discolorations, gum bleeding or recession, and joint popping and clicking. Examination can lead to the early diagnosis and treatment of severe health issues of the mouth and nearby structures, such as an abnormal bite, clenching and grinding, gum disease, oral cancer and temporomandibular joint disorder, also known as TMJ, which is a painful condition that can cause head and face pain.
Salary: The average salary for a Dentist is $123,787 per year. The skills that increase pay for this job the most are General Surgery, Dentistry, General dentist, dentist, and Oral Surgery.                                                                                                    

Education: Education Requirements. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that most dental students obtain a bachelor's degree prior to entering dental school. While no specific undergraduate degree is required, students commonly take science developments in biology, anatomy, chemistry and microbiology.


Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

No, I don’t think I would like to be a dentist. Although they help people maintain healthy mouths, I don’t think I am interested in working with teeth as a career. Dentists take x-rays and refill cavities so they won’t get to your nerve and you won’t feel pain. Without dentist some people would have fewer teeth than they do now. Dentists also have the capability to implant you fake teeth so you won’t have gaps in-between your teeth. In my perspective being a dentist is one of many important jobs there can be, but I have an interest in different ideas.

Hosea Ballou

"Obedience sums up our entire duty" - Hosea Ballou
Obedience is not a skill, we have the choice to decide whether or not we are obedient. Obedience sums up our entire duty, because duty and responsibility consists of obedience. Without people who obey, everyone would do whatever they desired, and things would never get done. For example if constructors did not obey manuals/orders, buildings would not be built correctly and people would be in huge danger, including the constructors. Another example could be, when doing something the other way around rather than the proper way, that then affects the duty you are doing and the one they have trusted you with. In my opinion this quote,by Hosea Ballou, really adds up and makes sense, because without obedience nobody would do the duties that they are responsible for.

S.S.S

       "When I do good, I feel good. When I do bad , I feel bad."                                      - Abraham Lincoln 
       In my opinion, I agree with Abraham Lincoln. When people do good things, for example help an individual out, they are most likely to feel good because they know what they did was correct and really generous of them. If someone knows they did something bad I doubt they will feel good about it because what they did was wrong. An example can be if you rob money from your parents, and you know you did the wrong thing, you will feel really bad knowing that you did something that wasn't right. Many people choose to do the wrong things, like people in jail. People in jail must feel really bad that they may not be with their families. Abraham Lincoln is correct.

Doctors of Chiropractic work one-on-one with patients, helping them improve their generally health and find relief from headaches, back, neck and joint pain, without reliance on drugs or surgery. Chiropractors often care for entire families and develop close relationships over time, which makes chiropractic a deeply satisfying profession. Whether in business for themselves or working in a group practice or hospital setting, chiropractors enjoy high esteem in the communities they serve, as well as satisfying and financially secure lifestyles. To be a chiropractor is to make a true difference every day, helping patients improve their health and quality of life naturally.

Education: Chiropractic education requires at least 4 years of professional study and includes a 4-year undergraduate/college prerequisite in most states.

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?
No, I don’t think I would enjoy being a chiropractor. This is because chiropractors work with the bones, like the spine and etcetera. Working with the bones can be a really delicate job and although I’d be helping a lot of people and changing lives, my interests are onto different professions.

S.S.S


"The key to freedom is obedience. The more obedient we are, the more freedom we have." - Boyd K. Packer
 I believe that Boyd K. Packer is correct, Freedom does consists of obedience. Obedience has a huge impact in our lives because if people did not obey there would be many more criminals than there is now , and a lot of danger in the streets. People who do not obey have less freedom than any other person who does obey, for example criminals. Criminals get most of their freedom taken away by being put in jail. When criminals are in jail they do not get to go out and eat at places, they must eat what the jail provides them with. Criminals also do not have the privilege to sleep in comfortable beds, take a shower in clean showers, see their family on a daily schedule for a long period of time and etcetera. Another example of why obedience is the key to freedom can be that when you don't obey your parents, your freedom of going out gets taken away. You can no longer go out for a couple of week or sometimes months if you do not obey your parents and be respectful to them. Many people must suffer the consequences when making bad decisions and disobeying the laws, and sometimes life can hit you with a hard impact, and only because you decided to disobey. People shouldn't disobey because disobeying can lead to huge impacts in your life and sometimes the impacts will leave you inside scars that you will never forget and will regret. In conclusion, I believe Boyd K. Packer is very correct, life is better when people obey and do the right things.

"Obedience is the great test of life" - Thomas S. Monson 
    In my opinion, this quote is relevant because without obedience the world would be a confused disaster. For example, People would not obey laws and light signals while driving , and that would cause a huge impact in our daily lives and many people would die of car accidents and etcetera. This quote is very important and many people should obey to make the world a better place.

Cardiologist

                                            Cardiologist
Duties and responsibilities: Cardiologists are physicians who have received additional training to prevent, diagnose and treat conditions of the cardiovascular system, which includes the heart and the body's blood vessels. Before practicing as a cardiologist, the roles and responsibilities of a cardiologist can vary, but certain overviews are possible.

Education: Physicians must graduate from medical school, complete a residency and become board-certified in internal medicine, and then complete a fellowship in cardiology. Cardiology residencies typically last three years, and fellowships are a minimum of three years, making at least six years of training beyond medical school.
Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

No, I would not like to be one, because my interests do not consist of the cardiovascular system, or anything else having to do with the body.  Although I’d be of great help, I feel like I am not made for that type of career.

september 11 2001

On September 11, 2001, at 8:45 a.m. on a clear Tuesday morning, an American Airlines Boeing 767 loaded with 20,000 gallons of jet fuel crashed into the north tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. The impact left a gaping, burning hole near the 80th floor of the 110-story skyscraper, instantly killing hundreds of people and trapping hundreds more that were in higher floors. As the evacuation of the tower and its twin got underway, television cameras broadcasted live images of what initially appeared to be a freak accident. Then, 18 minutes after the first plane hit, a second Boeing 767–United Airlines Flight 175–appeared out of the sky, turned sharply toward the World Trade Center and crashed into the south tower near the 60th floor. The collision caused a massive explosion that showered burning debris over surrounding buildings and the streets below. America was under attack. My first memory of this is watching the news on tv and discovering the tragical terrorism that had occurred. I was shocked. Two weeks after the September 11 attacks the federal Bureau of investigation connected the hijackers to al-Qaeda, a global, decentralized terrorist network.


 
September 11 2001, when many people suffered, died, and committed suicide by throwing themselves off the 80th floor, and landing on the pavement. Innocent people who had family woke up in the morning of 9/11 not even realizing they were going to die that day. There was many calls made of people that were in the planes that knew they were going to die, to their family expressing how much they loved them and goodbyes, it was really touching. All people who died this day, had no fault and didn't deserve to die , but we will always remember 9/11. After this attack, our people were never the same .

"Education is the latch key to success in life." - Gordon B. Hinckley                                                                                            
In my opinion, this quote is relevant. I believe this because without education you would  not know one single thing about any type of career you would want to do.
People like doctors, engineers, police , and etcetera would not be what they are if it wasn't for the education they were given, so education is the most important concept for you to succeed and achieve your goals in life.

" Decisions Determine Destiny " - Thomas S. Monson 


Reflection: In my opinion this quote seems accurate. I believe this because if you decide to do a bad decision than your destiny will be bad, and same thing if you were to make a good decision. Also because i have done good myself and in all my classes so now I am earning a positive outcome which is having good grades and so far passing all my classes, and not a negative outcome, because that just wouldn't make sense.
Example of the Quote: If you decide to not do your chores at home, you will receive a negative outcome which would consist of probably no celular devises or no going out with friends until you did what you were suppose to do.

Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?

Yes, because I would like to help students/people who are really dedicated to their sport be safe. The reason why is because if someone really enjoys their sport but gets hurt , then that certain person will regret what happened to them because now they can’t play what they love the most. Also because I would be helping a lot of athletes achieve what they want.
