  My Family Similarities & Differences My Family Differences Similarities Grandmother Until her last days my Lola always spend it working despite being 80 years old and retiring three time.

THE ANSWER TO "WHY?"

-
I chose to pursue Bachelor of Science in Occupational Therapy because of my personal experiences, dreams, and desire to help others. There are five main reasons why I am passionate about this field. First, OT is not really well-known our country, and I want to change that. Many people don't realize how important Occupational Therapists are when it comes to improving lives.

It also focuses on mental health, cognitive skills, and social participation. Many people don't kn...

These distractions make it tough to stay focused and organize my time properly, which makes it harder to be productive. I know how important time management is especially for students like me, so I'm trying my best to improve it. There are times, though, when I feel motivated and when that happened, my time management really works. I'm able to juggle school assignments, chores, and other responsibilities without feeling overwhelmed. It's those moments when I feel the most productive and fulfilled because I'm able to complete everything on my list, and it gives me a real sense of accomplishment.  I understand that managing my time well is crucial, noy just for school but also for my personal life. That's why I'm actively looking for ways to get better at it. That's why I'm actively looking for ways to get better at it. Whether it's u...
