Ever since I can remember, I had a passion for helping and serving others. This inspired me to want to be a doctor. Even though I was unsure what type of doctor, I knew I had a passion for service. It did not matter what problem arose; I knew that I wanted to be available to help. Through my personal faith in God, I believe that service is one of the most important acts that someone can aspire for. It will truly humble you and teach you how to love others. I always loved being able to see people succeed and was interested in the health of others. Being an athlete, I was always encouraged to keep my body healthy and fit. This is how I grew amazed by the human body and the way it moves.
My experience in physical therapy started when I was a
It started from wanting to be a doctor because almost everyone in my family is in the medical field in some way. I wanted to carry out that legacy at first, but then it did not feel true to what I really wanted. At that time, I really did not know what I wanted to do as a career. Then I entered into my junior year and in my English language and composition class, we were reading the book “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks”. This book changed my life and helped me make my decision to become a Health Specialties teacher.
Growing up I had always known I wanted to do something meaningful, something I thought was important, and change the lives of people around me. It was not until my freshman year of college I realized what I truly wanted to do. My friend had gotten pregnant and asked me to attend her ultrasound appointments with her. Once the time came I went with her to receive a check-up to see how the baby was doing. Watching her progress was one of the most fascinating things I had seen.
I have been able to see the joy on a child’s face when they finally make a shot, the joy on their face when they learn how and when to cross the street, and the joy on their face when they realize that they have the potential to be anything they want to be in life. Being able to watch this all happen has allowed me to realize that I want to see these kinds of amazing reactions every day for the rest of my life. On top of this, I want to be the one to allow them to have this reaction. To me, it is the best feeling in the world when I know that I have helped someone do something they felt they couldn’t do before. This being said, my volunteer work has persuaded me into the direction of the medical field. I feel this has happened because the medical field gives me an enormous variety of ways to impact lives
Hard work and empathy were instilled in me at a young age and ultimately have guided my life decisions. I always knew I wanted a career doing something that involved helping people and left me feeling that I made a difference in their lives. I finished my undergraduate degree in Nutrition, but in the end lacked passion for the profession. Following a personal experience with an Occupational Therapist, I was able to see the positive outcome she had on my grandfathers recovery which lead me to pursue my career in occupational therapy.
I have always had a passion for helping individuals no matter what their situations were. Growing up, I was in the hospital at least once a year or even more due to an injury that I had acquired due to my daredevil stunts. As a child, I remember jumping off the top of my bunk bed into a jar of vaseline and splitting my eye. My stunts were very dangerous and kept me with a spot on a hospital bed at Christ Advocate Hospital. By constantly being at the hospital, it became a home to me. I would become fascinated as I waited in the waiting room seeing all of the different injuries. This fascination only led me to learn to explore further. I would spend my late nights ,when I was suppose to be sleep, staying up until 12 am watching different surgeries on YouTube. The more gruesome the surgery, the more I wanted to experience it.
Becoming a doctor would not only allow me to educate others, but would allow me to endlessly improve my medicinal knowledge and education. There are many moments in my life which have motivated me to pursue a medical career and help others, but the memory I consider most influential is when I volunteered with Shepherd's Table Soup Kitchen in Raleigh. My goal was to make as many people smile as I could. However, there was one man in line that made me smile instead. He was crippled and defeated by poverty; he was laid off from his job, which, consequently, prohibited him from attending college. He shut down and let poverty win. He said it was the biggest mistake of his life. Choked up with emotion and pain from the past, he then gave me advice, "If you can see your dream now, grab it. Whatever you do, don't let it go." Serving others, like the man in the soup kitchen, has bestowed upon me the motivation to lead and inspire others, just as he inspired
Lee Greenwood said, “And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I’m free. And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.” Everyone in America should be proud that they live in a free country. These rights occurred due to the men who died while honoring the country. The America I believe in is giving us the power to be free and to speak.
I remember being four years old in my preschool class and a little boy coming in one day with a bandage over his ear, because his ear drum had ruptured. I just remember having this overwhelming feeling to make sure that he was okay. So much so that during nap time, I made sure that my nap pad was right next to his, just so that I could make sure that he wasn’t hurting or in pain. Since that instance, I have always been a person that has been compelled to help people. It’s a part of my internal genetic code. The older I became, the more I realized that going into the field of medicine was easily my best platform to be in a position to help people. When I think about being a doctor, I get filled with an overpowering feeling of excitement. I get to be the person that someone trusts with their care, a person that someone trusts to treat their ailments with respect, a person that can use their mind
Ever since I was a young girl I loved to help others. I always loved seeing the person’s eyes light up and give me that beautiful smile as they say the words “thank you.” It’s with these wonderful things that give me the insurance that I want to be a doctor. This way I get to help people who have been in indescribable pain; both physically and emotionally, and threw that career I can experience that same kindling joy that I do now. My Mom always told me that I had healing hands.
I owe it to myself, my family and to the world to be the best I can be and that makes me assiduously pursue my goals towards a career in medicine.
From a very early age I have had a passion and drive to help people. I was first inspired to go in to a nursing career by my grandmother who would tell me stories about her experiences as a midwife. One that stood out to me was when she travelled through a snowstorm to deliver a baby, and it is this level of commitment, care and compassion that I aspire to have. I have also found inspiration from my mum who is an ICU nurse and has always shared her experience and advice with me. This has been something that has resonated with me throughout my life and has always served as an inspiration.
When I was very little I wanted to be a fashion designer then I started to realize I had no real creative skills in sewing drawer or anything like that. Which upset me a bit, but I figured out I loved helping people and making them smile and feel good about themselves since I never felt that way so I decided to become either a psychiatrist or a nurse, I wasn't sure which one would be the best fit for me until I got into high school and got into an anatomy program and physiology program and I had more fun in the anatomy program. So i decided to try and go for medicine after high school and become a nurse, while in anatomy i learned that you could choose which area you wanted to study in and since i love working with younger people or people around my own age i decided a medicine would be the best fit for me at least that's what I believe. These Experiences have helped me be the person I am and stand out a bit more than I used to. I've had so many bad and good experiences in my life. My grandpa went to the hospital for a seizure, my uncle had ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) and my other grandpa on my moms side died from liver cancer. These things that have happened in my life has wanted me to get kinto helping other people and fixing them not just their mind but there internal physic
I hope that you are doing well and thank you for agreeing to be my mentor. I am writing in regards to a project I’m doing for my English 2 Honors class. This project is called the Passion Project.

I first realized that I had a passion for helping people when I was a part of the Interact Club in high school. We performed many community service projects, most of which directly involved helping people in need. Watching the look of someone 's gratitude when you give them groceries, or help repair their home was extremely satisfying. At the same time, my passion for medicine first began when I visited the hospital to see my ill cousin while in my teenage years. I watched as health care workers worked tirelessly and with such compassion to make sure he was comfortable and was getting better. I remember all of these scenes vividly and to this day I feel this event was the initial spark of my love for medicine and helping people. These two passions combined helping me to understand that I wanted to use them together in the healthcare field.
