Where it all started
When I was three years old, I developed my own virtues, photographic memory, and what I want to learn. I wanted to learn everything, but realized I could not achieve that in one lifetime. So I thought of the most fundamental subjects that would let me learn the most knowledge possible in the shortest amount of time. This is what I came up with:

How it works
The arts, athletics, and academics are what revolve around and depend on each other for me to learn more. (description of each - art - ideas, athletics - keep ideas going, academics - research, synthesize ideas, culture - understanding someone else's everyday life to the point of being able to be in it). When I run out of ideas or want to put things into perspective, I would look towards other people's viewpoints and experiences in culture*. I have kept this going up to now and plan to keep this going for the rest of my life (or until I find something better). Throughout this time, I have taught myself many subjects in the AAA's and taken in many ideas through culture. (note: culture is more of a direction - for applications of AAA - which are principles. AAA -> C = designs to bring into reality).
These subjects are stepping stones that will lead to more complex subjects throughout my entire life. Some subjects have limits as to how far you can learn from and keep rising up in complexity in them. After I keep going in a subject, there will come a place where no one knows what lies beyond it. This is what I like to explore, because I could extend the capacity of humanity's collective knowledge. And this is where I created my lifetime goal (shown below). My lifetime goal was also created when I was ten and is a height I would like to reach one day when I have enough knowledge built up for it.

- "CONTRIBUTE SOMETHING SIGNIFICANT TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE FOR THE NEXT GENERATION."
* - (this is a dynamic of situational control: reliance, openness, and placement of labor. The more work I do, the less I need to rely on others and the more closed I get. If I leave it to everyone to contribute to the building of knowledge - then that's open feedback of labor. The issue is when people complain or stop - which is why it's important to be as independent as possible and put the most work on yourself to achieve what you really need done (i.e. egoistic altruism) - no matter how much others want to or complain about not contributing - it's the individual that's in control of the situation to get everything done, not the masses).
my background story
Turn to Health
Throughout my life, I would eat unhealthy. I would go to fast food restaurants and order fries, soda, and the largest, unhealthiest burgers. One day (when I was twelve years old), I thought it would be interesting to just be the opposite of myself and become healthy. So then I ate what I thought was healthy food (like yogurt). I tried this for six months. Unfortunately, the healthy food did not taste good. After that, I decided to go back to eating unhealthy. But when I took a bite of the unhealthy food, it did not taste good either. So I said to myself, "fine, if unhealthy food does not taste good, I will set out to eat healthy from now on. It is the better option, since both foods taste bad". So I decided to take the road to healthiness.
In the first step, I chose to just get used to the taste of healthy foods. During those few months, I researched about healthy foods. There was one day, when I went to a library, and took out ten books from the shelves and read them all front to cover, back to back. As that occurred, I realized that some foods I thought were healthy were not. So I moved on to the next step, which was determining which foods are healthy and which ones are not. I achieved this through eliminating and reintroducing foods one at a time and seeing their health effects. Slowly, I would eliminate foods that I thought were unhealthy and kept those that were. This took a couple of years to finish (around three to four years). After that, I hit the next dilemma: not all foods I thought were healthy were. The reason is that some foods were advertised as healthy but were not. So I spent two to three more years with that process. Then I hit a block. My diet was not fully sorted yet, but I ran out of ideas on which foods are healthy and which foods are not. Finally, eight years after I started, a shed of light came. My friend told me her story about ulcerative colitis and how she eats the diet I have but cannot eat meat. I realized this was the last piece of the puzzle, and so I became a vegetarian. This is my lifestyle now.
The Reach Out to Others
After reaching my peak with healthiness, I decided to help others with their health. I thought about which field I could go into that could apply to many people. And this is where environmental health comes in. So I left my previous degree to pursue this new venture and hopefully achieve my lifetime goal! Right now, I am learning as much as I can and getting experience to propel me in my career.
