“Obedience is central to becoming, being, and remaining happy.”

David A. Bednar

Reflection: what I think this reflection by David is trying to say that if you do what is right you will be happy and have nothing to worry or stress out about because you’re doing what is best. If you do the opposite of obedience you will be unhappy, sad, and mad, scared, and have all of these bad negative thoughts about yourself. Your guilt might kill you. you should always do what is best for you and others. You will like a better life with no regrets and disappointments. 

Eastern medicine doctor

Eastern medicine doctor

Duties and responsibilities: "Chinese medicine," often called "Oriental medicine" or "traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)," encompasses a vast array of folk medical practices based on mysticism. It holds that the body's vital energy (chi or qi) circulates through channels, called meridians, that have branches connected to bodily organs and functions. Illness is attributed to imbalance or interruption of chi.. Ancient practices such as acupuncture, Qigong, and the use of various herbs are claimed to restore balance.

Salary: $30,000-$150,000

Education: In 1971, an acupuncture boom occurred in the United States because of stories about visits to China by various American dignitaries. Entrepreneurs, both medical and nonmedical, began using flamboyant advertising techniques to promote clinics, seminars, demonstrations, books, correspondence courses, and do-it-yourself kits. Today some states restrict the practice of acupuncture to physicians or others operating under their direct supervision. In about 20 states, people who lack medical training can perform acupuncture without medical supervision. The FDA now classifies acupuncture needles as Class II medical devices and requires labeling for one-time use by practitioners who are legally authorized to use them [17]. Acupuncture is not covered under Medicare. The March 1998 issue of the Journal of the American Chiropractic Association carried a five-part cover story encouraging chiropractors to get acupuncture training, which, according to one contributor, would enable them to broaden the scope of their practice

Pharmacy technician

  Pharmacy technician

Duties and responsibilities: Pharmacists compound, or prepare, prescriptions written by physicians, dentists, and other practitioners.  They review these prescriptions to validate their accuracy and then prepare the medication.  This can involve weighing, measuring, and mixing drugs.  Once the compounds are prepared, pharmacists then dispense them to customers and patients.

Pharmacists answer patients' and customers' questions about the drugs they are taking and drugs which can be sold over the counter.  In some cases, pharmacists are responsible for taking inventory of the drugs on the shelves and ordering any which they are low on.

Pharmacists work in hospitals, clinics, health departments, universities, and grocery, drug, and discount stores.  Those who work in stores must be aware of the other health supplies available in the store so they do not direct customers in the wrong direction.

Salary: Average Salary:  $33,000 - $51,000

Education: Students should take the most challenging high school classes (including AP or IB) available in English, science, and math.

All pharmacists must graduate from a college of pharmacy.  Most pharmacy schools require applicants to take the Pharmacy College Admissions Test (P-CAT), and some require up to two years of pre-pharmacy education.  Other colleges will admit students directly from high school.

Normally it takes at least five years to earn a Pharmacy Degree.  To earn a Doctor of Pharmacy degree,  Pharm.D., requires at least six.

Student success statement

“No student ever attains eminent success by simply doing what is required of him/her , it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction.”

Charles Kendall Adams, American Historical

Reflection: to me I think this quote is trying to say that in order for students to be successful they not only have to do what there told to do but , also they have to be doing good and keep up something like that. But I guess its better to do what they ask you to do because it is the amount and excellence of what is over and above the required that determines the greatness of ultimate distinction.
