The nutshell is no more than 150 words long


Input:

"Your career profile shows you are an Analyst. As an Analyst, you have the natural ability to promote harmony among others. You are a creative problem solver and can often find alternative solutions and approaches others fail to see. You have little difficulty understanding complex concepts, and this further assists you when tough answers are needed from you. You have a sincere desire to help others develop, and you can be a persuasive leader that is committed to what you believe in."

Response:

"Health promotion is a way of life. From the moment we wake up, every thought and action becomes the eventual sum of our health and wellbeing.

My ideal career is in the field of health promotion, where I can collaborate with individuals to forge a healthier path for our local and global societies. As an analytical person, I thrive on the complexity of health behavior. I can envision the tangled web of causation, for instance, that persuades a recent immigrant not to seek medical services in a new country and new neighborhood. Culture, religion, literacy, family – all play a role. However, the analyst in me says the web can be untangled. By carefully analyzing human experiences, solutions to poor health choices and opportunities for improved health all begin to surface. In the mysteries of health promotion, I find my drive to demystify the everyday challenge of human life."


Motivation:

$500/Something to do during the lunch break I refuse to 'take'

Side note:

I am going to the public library in Hampden today to check out far too many books I won't really read. How's that for questionable behavior?
