Health Self-Assessment
Identify which three of the six dimensions of health you are strongest in.
According to this self-assessment instrument, my three strongest health dimensions are Social Health, Spiritual Health, and Intellectual Health. I scored a 4 out of 5 in each of those areas. By comparison, I scored a 3 in each of the other three measures (Physical Health, Emotional Health, and Environmental Health.
Describe why you think the identified three dimensions are your strongest.
I scored well in Social Health because I am comfortable with the impressions that I make on people and because I tend to get along well with others.

Currently, I do not regularly engage in any kind of aerobic exercise or any kind of strength training exercises. I could become stronger in the Emotional Health dimension by resisting the temptation to internalize anger and frustration and by learning to express my disappointment in others more directly and non-confrontationally. Part of that improvement would also include reminding myself to step out of situations and to recognize and lower my stress level when necessary. I might also work at trying to understand why other people may do some of the things they do and to view their actions in…

Another option is to run a nursery school. This would be more intellectually challenging, as preschool preparation is often an integral part of these facilities. Also, it demands a more structured day, more experienced and competent teaching personnel, and often children stay longer at the site. Parents feel comfortable leaving their children in the care of others for longer periods of time when the children are older. For this business,
