Earl Nightingale

Reflection: what I think this quote means is if you’re set your mind to what you want to be then most likely you will become it.

Example: for example if someone wants to be a teacher then you will do your most hardest to become it.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

“Good thoughts bear good fruit. Bad thoughts bear bad fruit”

James Allen

Reflection: what I think this quote means is if you think of choosing the right then your mind will have a habit of doing the right thing and being a good fruit. But if you do bad things and choose the wrong then you will have a habit of doing wrong and your mind will be a bad fruit.  

Example: for example if you steal something you think you can do it again and again and will get a habit of doing it. but if you choose the right thing by not stealing then you will stay good.

¨     They examine family history and determine what type of genetic problems they have.

¨     Conduct research about genetic disorders.

Education:

Students that are interested in becoming genetic counselors should take the most challenging high school curriculum that emphasizes science and mathematics and other classes. A master’s degree is required, and most graduate programs are required

I wouldn’t want to be one because it’s hard to work with other people.

Average salary:$25,000 - $55,000

Reflection: what I think this quote is trying to say is doing what’s right is better than showing off, trying to be the best, and saying your better than others but it’s about always doing the right, whether it’s sportsmanship or anything else but it’s always better to do what’s right.
