Poverty or Prosperity

 Student Success Statement
                                      
                                      A Choice: Poverty or Prosperity

“I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work and I decided that I would change it”
                                                     

                                                       Dr. Ben Carson


I think this quote by Dr. Ben Carson means that he would change poverty depending on how hard he wants to work and if he decides if he will change it or not.

                                                 DEAN SMITH


Reflection: this quote means that when he was trying to leave he was doing the right thing.

Reflection: I really don’t know if I would be one , maybe as a side job , but other than that they do get paid kind of good.

Randy Pausch

Student Success Statement

“It’s not about how to achieve your dreams. It’s about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma (destiny, fortune, good luck) will take care of itself. The dreams will come to you.”

      

                                            Dr. Randy Pausch

Reflection: What this quote means is that if you lead your life to the right way you can achieve more than what you expected to achieve. If you choose the right any in any way to achieve your goals in life then all the good things will happen to you. 


Ear , Nose , and Throat

Ear, Nose, and Throat

Doctor Duties and Responsibilities: Ear, nose and throat specialists, also known as sts are medical doctors responsible for surgical and medical treatment of the ears, nose, and throat, as well related head and neck areas.  Specialized skills of otolaryngologists include managing disorders of the upper pharynx (voice box), ears, nose and nasal passage, and face and neck. They handle cases such as nosebleeds, adenoidectomies, infected mastoids, tonsillectomies, and sinusitis.

Salary:  $205,000 per year

Education:  At least 5 years of training in a surgical residency. This compromises a 1 year course in general surgery and a 4 year course in otolaryngology. Most start with a medical education with a Bachelor of Science degree, but those with a Bachelor of Arts degree also accepted into some medical programs.



Reflection: I would like to be a ENT doctor because you can help them with any problems dealing with throat ear and nose. Also you can identify if they have a virus and help some tumors that are growing within these areas.
