Student Success Statement

Student Success Statement: 

ATTITUDE is the mind's paintbrush. It can color ANY situation. 

Anonymous

Refection: 
I believe that what this quote is saying is that with any situation, YOUR attitude is what will react first and it can make the best or the worst in any situation. Be sure to make sure that attitude picks the right thing. Your reaction will determine how others will look at you and also how you can handle certain circumstances. Be careful of where you come upon and how you take the moment. 



Attitude

When you attend church and you are respectful of the situation, just as you should be in class, and maybe a funeral and etc.

"He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm."
                                                A Proverb





Reflection:

Whenever you associate yourself with people, you sometimes become like them in a few ways. You begin to act like the ones around you and you all do the same things together. When you are around the right people you do the right things. But when you socialize yourself with wrong people, just as the right, you start to do wrong things. Sometimes inappropriate things. Never enter the world of famine and disgust because you will become what you seem to be around. In someways, its perfectly fine to alienate yourself from the ones you believe are bringing to you do the wrong things in life. you need self control and if you cannot come to this, then maybe you should move away from the wrong crowd. Walk wisely just at this proverb says and you will do wise and great things in life.

As one progresses, he or she will learn how to make crowns and dentures.

"You can't hire someone else to do your push-ups for you" 


                                  Jim Rohn 


Reflection: You need to pursue things on your own. You can never have anyone do your work for you, or eat your food for you and expect to get full. You won't feel the satisfaction you would if you did things on your own. Why have others intervene your life and run the duties that you have to? Maybe because some don't know how to except their responsibilities and they become lost in the moment. Confused in the cast expansion of their issues. But these issues can only proceed to get bigger unless you face them yourself. Someone cannot take a driver's test for you and then you expect to receive the licence. Things don't work in that manner. Take your duties and finish them yourself. But make sure that you also start them yourself too. Never blame others and throw them into your needs when YOU'RE the one who need to compete against yourself and complete them. Take on the challenge and do what you must. Don't ever back down from what you must do. If you do so, then you will stay in the same you began in and unless you started off on your own, you will remain on the ground, never to get up or run forward.

Temptationns

In the video I learned that temptation can take over easily so it is important to have will power over the things you come across. If not, the you will encounter will take possession over you and you will lose your self control. Never give in to peer pressure to the ones around you because they are only there to take advantage. They will not stand next to you in your time of need. So choose correctly who you want to be around with. And always remember to never allow yourself to fall into temptation because it can consume you. More than you believe.

"Kindness is the essence of greatness"  Joseph B. Wirthlin



Reflection: To pursue kindness is they key to unlocking the greatest things in life. To be known. So that everyone can remember you for being that person who didn't commit any crimes. But as the person who committed acts of greatness. Not only are they nice things to do. But they can defy and determine who you are or who you can become in the near future. Acts of kindness are the essential; key to becoming a better person. These things can allow someone to be recognized for the good things hey did and not the crime that they would never commit.

"Visualization - Imagination: What you see is what you get''

       
                                   ANON


Reflection: I personally believe that this mean that whatever you see yourself as is what you will become. Push yourself, and give yourself goals because if you don't and see yourself as a failure then this is what you will become into. Test your skills. Put your mind into a challenge and compete with your thoughts and knowledge in order to see yourself as a stronger competitor. This will allow you to evolve and turn into someone you would WANT to see yourself as. Not as a criminal. Or someone who vandalizes daily. Nor as the person who gets waded back because reality and the world hit them too hard. See yourself as more. Someone who will stand out and relinquish all selfish and wrong acts to achieve the greater things in life. This is what most people should see them selves as. But the one who views him/herself in the wrong way will become the wrong things. Stand up, and stand out. Be creative because all these things are good traits and are all apart of a good personality, and personality is everything. Having a good one will allow you to become what you want to see.

Sonographer (Ultrasound Technician)

Duties and Responsibilities:
Ultrasonography, commonly called sonography, is a diagnostic medical procedure that uses high frequency sound waves (ultrasound) to produce dynamic visual images of organs, tissues, or blood flow inside the body. This type of procedure is often referred to as a sonogram or ultrasound scan. Sonography can be used to examine many parts of the body, such as the abdomen, breasts, female reproductive system, prostate, heart, and blood vessels. Sonography is increasingly being used in the detection and treatment of heart disease, heart attack, and vascular disease that can lead to stroke. It is also used to guide fine needle, tissue biopsy to assist in taking a sample of cells from an organ for lab testing. Unlike X-rays, sonography is a radiation-free imaging modality.


Salary: $78,520 annually

EducationComprehensive Diagnostic Medical Sonography programs vary in length from one to four years depending on the degree or certificate awarded. Prerequisites also vary among programs from high school diploma or GED to specific qualifications in a related allied health profession.
The SDMS recommends that prospective students select a reputable program that follows minimum curriculum and clinical education standards recognized by the American Registry for Diagnostic Medical  Sonography. The SDMS does not recommend training programs that provide limited opportunity for students to apply classroom instruction and technical skills in patient care settings (clinical rotations). When seeking a reputable program, candidates might wish to consult the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs, which accredits diagnostic medical sonography programs in the United States.

Reflection: 
I don't believe that I would pursue a career in this. It is simply not in my interest to engineer in any medical field.
