Yes I would like to be one because they get paid a lot and it is in the same field of science I want to work on. It is not my first dream job but it is one I'd like to work on as a back up.

"Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise."
-Benjamin Franklin

I think what this great man means is that if you do things fast and good, you will be healthy, rich and smart. For example if you follow the same routine, of waking up, jogging, studying and going to school, you will get adjusted to that routine, making you balanced overall because you are getting the basic things your body asks of you. You will be fit because you jog, you will smart because you study, and you will rich because you are going to school to become something. If everyone were to follow these steps we would be better humans overall.

"A wise man ought to realize that health is his most valuable possession."
-Hippocrates
I think what this great philosopher means is that if you want to be in great condition, the only way you can reach that is by being healthy. For example, you want to become a genius, but how are you going to reach that goal if you can't get out of bed because you are sick, fat, insane etc.. You need to be healthy for anything to take place because if you are not, everything falls apart.

Do you think you would like to be one?
If I did not want to be a surgeon i would like to be one because they make a lot of money and it is somewhat in the same field of study as a surgeon. I feel like this is a good job to take because there isn't really a lot of pressure and even if you fail it's not as bad as seeing someone die because of your lack of skills.

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

I think what this man means is that anyone who is kind and nice, is great. If you help out a person in need, for example, giving out to the homeless, you will be great because in that exact moment you showed kindness. Even if no one saw you be great, you still feel great because you know you did the right thing and you really helped someone out that day. I also feel that even if no one sees you doing a thing, you shouldn't do it because of that, you should still do it for the sole purpose of self pleasure of feeling good and respectable

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

I believe what this quote means is that whatever you are aiming for, that is what you get. For example, if i believe i will become a doctor, I will become a doctor because I will try hard to become one. On the other hand, if my imagination is lower, I will imagine myself as a cashier at McDonald's because that is the furthers I imagine myself going. It all depends on your aspect and way of seeing things. The higher your expectations, the more likely you will be something in life."
