Personal Statement paper Mental health nursing involves taking care of people with mental disorders and distress. These mental disorders include schizophrenia, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, personality disorders, eating disorders, suicidal thoughts, paranoia, and self-harm. The main reason to why I am applying for this course is because I realized that society needs more psychiatrists. The cases of mental health disorders are increasing, and people do not even seem to realize that they could be having any problem in their behavior. Amongst the patients includes young students, who are having mental issues because of the pressure from the family or peers. The subject is interesting as it involves the study of the human brain and how the surrounding environment influences the behavior of an individual. The study of the human brain is quite interesting as you get to understand how people reason and what influences their decisions. With this, it will be quite easy to maintain good relationships with your peers. It will also make it easy to help people who could be faced with difficult situations in order not…
Personal Fitness Personal fitness has remained a continuous goal in my life for the benefits that accrue from it. The concept comprises of health benefits and body fitness. Medical studies have shown that physical exercise is good for health. Some of these benefits include reducing total body weight, trimming the waistline, easing stress, depression and anxiety, improving sleep and enhancing body flexibility. Physical activity may be contributing about 70% of physical fitness in real life. This is true, especially where the income-generating activity is not physically engaging like my job as an accountant. Deliberate physical activity has played a significant role in enhancing my general body fitness. Besides, physical activities have been a considerable income generation program through training other people at pay. The implication is meeting the intended outcome while incurring health benefits.

Academic Writing and Research Skills In observation, the researcher or investigators measure and observes the variables without assigning treatment to such subjects. The treatment given to each variable is beyond the researcher’s control. For instance, suppose an investigator wants to research on the effects of smoking in lung volume in men. The researcher looks for 80 men, 30 of whom have been smoking for a packet of cigarettes for the past eight years. The research will measure lung volume for all the 80 men. After that, the investigator analyzes, interprets, and makes inferences from the data. Conversely, in experimentation, a researcher applies treatments to the subjects such as peoples or animal and then observe the impact of each treatment on each subject unit. Under experimentation, the investigator purely controls the assignment of treatment to subject groups. For example, suppose the researcher wants to find out the effects of smoking on lung volume in men. A researcher finds 80 men, aged 25 and doesn’t smoke currently.

Avon Sports Apparel and comparing its performance in the social media platforms as compared to Dicks Sporting Goods The present times of doing business require the use of social media platforms for effective marketing and provision of all the relevant information to the customers. The social media platforms include Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. A company that maintains a good relationship with the customers on social media platforms is likely to sell more than a competitor who does not concentrate on social media (Ashley, 2015).

The number of followers also influences the magnitude of influence on the market because customers share experiences of the products bought from a particular store (Ashley, 2015). Focusing on Avon Sports Apparel and comparing its performance in the…
I Don’t Know What To Do With My Life- And It’s Okay Not To. Have you ever tried to imagine a life where we would all wake up to bacon sandwiches and fried sausages? You wake up in the morning from some chalet within a vast compound and head to the refined balconies to bask in the glorious morning sun. I mean the kind of life where you are treated to buttered bread and eggs in the morning. In the afternoon, you take a stroll along the beach, soaking in the cool breeze as you eat those milky ice creams. How would it feel, taking a summer tour to Dubai every year, and sampling the amazing architecture as you get drenched in the therapeutic sun along the vast beaches? Maybe you still do not get me. Try to imagine this. You wake up every morning in some homesteads from the countryside. If you are not gathered around some evening fires listening to adages from your uncles, then you are out in the vast fields playing and chasing after wild animals.…
Since my childhood, I have always feared huge water bodies, and thus, considering a boat ride was never an option. However, over the summer holiday, I decided to confront my fears and experience a boat ride. I visited the Alabama Gulf Coast Dolphin Cruise, and the experience was awesome. In the beginning, I could not get my eyes off the water surface as I feared for the worst. I was in the boat with the captain alone, who was as confident as he possibly could. Looking around, I felt like the landmasses were moving while we remained in the position. As the captain steered the boat to dolphin hotspots, my concentration changed, and I began to enjoy the new venture. It was the perfect opportunity to observe the area’s diverse marine features. The dolphins were being playful and created a spectacular show as they jumped into the air and back into the water in quick succession as if celebrating our presence in the area. The captain explained that dolphins behave like humans and can get just as playful as young…
