Reflection:  This is a career that interests me the most. I've always been the one giving advice with my friends and helping them out threw their problems because I have experienced more then they have. Studying psychology is one of my major not only because you get to help out other people but because you also can get benefits out of it. With your family or friends. You would have the knowledge to deal with problems throughout your day. Helping people physically and mentally is one of my goals and this career is one of my 100 goals.

As how William Penn says " the best recreation is to do good". In order for you to understand what he is talking about you must break down his quote or define the words that seem to be the key term. Recreation, is when you are remaking something. If you are recreating something why not instead of it being bad you should do good as how William Penn states it in his quote. It's best to have done good in your life then the opposite of it.

                                           Peter Vidmar
       Sometimes people don't realize that as you get older things start to change. The way you think about things and what you truly want. For example there are many teens who choose the wrong and rather go out with friends to parties to smoke and drink but what will that truly benefit you. The only thing that it will cause is harm you. Instead of you going out with friends you should set your priorities straight and take care of the things that will benefit you when you're older. What you want right now at this age might not be what you have most desired. Things change and nothing stays the same. That's why you should pursue what will make you happy years from now.

Salary:$38,082 -$75,264

Coursework in a relevant 4-year, bachelor degree program includes courses on health care law and ethics, healthcare financial management, organization and management in healthcare, information systems for health care, health care administration, and case management.

Reflection:  Clinical managers have a big important job to do. They are in charge of what is being done to make the life of the doctors and nurses easier. It says it in the name  manager. I had never heard of a career like this but putting thought to it it wouldn't seem like a bad idea to try it out. It's different and new to me and who knows maybe I might be pretty good at it considering I still can't find the perfect career for me. This career would be one i'll be willing to try.

                                  Chromotherapy

Duties and Responsibilities:  Chromotherapy, sometimes called color therapy, colorology or chromatherapy, is an alternative medicine method, which is considered considered  considered pseudoscience. Chromo Therapists claim to be able to use light in the form of color to balance "energy" lacking from a person's body, whether it be on physical, emotional, spiritual, or mental levels. Research has shown it is ineffective. Color therapy is distinct from other types of light therapy, such as neonatal jaundice treatment and blood irradiation therapy which is a scientifically-accepted medical treatment for a number of conditions, and from photobiology, the scientific study of the effects of light on living organisms.



Education:There is no standard education or training for practitioners of chromotherapy. Chromotherapy is not a licensed health practice in North America.

Reflection: Sounds like a interesting career to take up because you are working with colors and how some people can be affected by which mood or how they feel by only using colors. I read an article about chromotherapy and it was about a girl who had been depressed for quite sometime and didn't know what to do or take. She later on realized her room needed a new color and changed it to light periwinkle and in a few days she started to feel much better. This career would be something I would enjoy studying for.

                     Always choose the right no matter what the decision might be. You can never go wrong if you do the right thing. Things are much easier then when you choose the wrong because you won't have to worry about any consequences are bad things happening to you.  For example if you decide to lie to whoever it's going to affect you because you will not only lie once but you will continue to lie to cover up the first lie. It's unfortunate but true, that's why always choose what is best and never choose the wrong.
