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

                             Og Mandino

                  

I think this is very true because how you are as a person is very important. It doesn’t matter if you’re rich and you have everything, you also have to be a nice, kind, caring and a thoughtful person. Those are the things that really matter because nobody is going to like you if you are selfish and snotty.

Reflection: This career does seem very interesting but I don’t think I would want to be one. It doesn’t really catch my attention that much for me to actually become one. Also because it looks like I would have to be giving people shots and I’m not very good around needles.

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

                           Sterling W. Sill

In my opinion this is true because you can be very rich and have everything you want but that just makes you a selfish and greedy person. What you are as a person is what really matters; nobody will really want to be around you if you are selfish and greedy. It’s better to be kinder and considerate than greedy and selfish.

“You cannot do wrong and feel right. It’s impossible.”

                                      Ezra T. Benson

                   

To me I think this is very true because we are only human and sometimes as much as we may not want to admit we do feel bad when we do something wrong. Our guilty conscious starts to kick in and it doesn’t let us rest in peace know that we’ve done something right, and causes us to make up for whatever it was we did wrong.

Reflection: This career doesn’t really catch my attention that much. Although I did find it interesting because I thought there was only acupuncture with the needles. But this career isn’t one that I would like to get into. 

Student Success Statement

“Education is the latchkey to success in life.”

                             Gordon B. Hinckley

I think this is very true because there are very limited options when you don’t have a good education, but when you do there are more options and almost no limit to what you can achieve. Also I think that the more educated you are the more you can succeed in life.

“Decisions determine destiny.”

                                  Thomas S. Monson

In my opinion this does have some truth to it because the decisions you make does determine what consequences you will get out of it, whether it’s good or bad. I also think this can be considered with every decision we make because no matter if it’s a small decision it can lead to a very big one that can and maybe will determine your destiny.
