Life for me has been very interesting. I started off in the nursing field as a nursing assistant and patient care tech at 19 working my way through school both full-time and part-time until I finally graduated from Virginia State University with my Associate’s of Science Degree in Nursing. After accomplishing that goal I have reached somewhat of a plateau in my life I have so many short and long-term goals I want to accomplish both professionally and personally. Some of professional goals are, becoming a supervisor at my current job, obtaining my Advance Life Support Certification, obtaining my Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing, enlisting into the Navy Nurse Corps, becoming a Nurse Practitioner, and eventually one day becoming an Administrator of an Acute Care Facility. As well as having professional goals in life you should have personal goals. My short and long term-personal goals are; relocating to Chicago, Illinois, getting married, and having children. The typical American Dream. These goals are not far from my reach with self motivation and perseverance all of these goals can be accomplished.…
My first goal is to have a 3.0 GPA. This goal is important to me because I want to make myself stand out to colleges and make myself more attractable. So far, in completing this, I have tried to turn in every assignment that my professors are giving me and doing extra credit homework to help boost my GPA a little higher. I am also working really hard in every other class to reach my goal of getting straight A’s this semester. In order to help myself make this goal a reality, I need to attend every class, keep doing my homework, and ask for help. I will also need the help of my counselor to get myself enrolled in the appropriate classes.…
Writing has not always been a strong suit of mine. Even in the present moment I sometimes struggle with writing. I have done numerous papers, ranging from daily journals to argumentative essays. I will admit that the older I grew I realized that writing helps in many ways. It can be a form of stress relieving, which I sometimes take into consideration when I have sort of a lot going on mentally. Many writing assignments were about what I liked to do hobby-wise, what my plans were for the future career/ school-wise, how I felt about certain discussed subjects nationwide such as the election of a black president, the rights for gay marriage, as well as oversea discussions, like the human trafficking in Thailand.…
Personal short-term and long-term goals I want to achieve as a University of Phoenix student…
Some kids play sports in high school. Others are in the band, take roles in theater, or members of the debate team. Myself, I did not so any of those things, because, since middle school, my life has been fully devoted to practicing my passion for agriculture and preparing for an eventual career in the industry. I never had time for orchestra rehearsals or scrimmages, I was either out in the barn or in the pens in the field, or at plant ID practice, livestock judging workouts, or chapter meetings instead. These things even took the place of milestones such as prom and homecoming dances for me in middle/high school, but, it was completely fine to me, because, I knew my hard work would soon pay off as soon as…
I aspire to help people get the most benefit possible from technology. My brother is an educator and his students learn English with the help of computer-based language programs. My sister is a physician assistant and uses sophisticated software to monitor health services for her patients. With my passion for technology, I can see great opportunities within these fields to contribute.…

The times these days in business are demanding more and more of the people that they hire. A first priority is a Bachelor Degree in most jobs that offer a decent salary or way of life. Pursuit of my degree is something I'm actively taking a fast stride in and I'm not planning on stopping there. I have a future planned for a better education, a positive outlook, and carrying on my family's history with successful accomplishments. I enjoy learning all aspects of life and some are harder than others but we press on and make the best of the future to come.…
There exists this pressure on my generation that we must have our entire lives already planned out to a T. Even as a fifth grader, I remember a prompt on a state test asking “Describe your lifetime goals and how you will achieve them.” This question is asked throughout our lives in different variations but the point remains the same. What are you going to do with your life? Asking me this prompt throughout my years in high school would have given you 4 completely different answers. Just a couple months ago I would have given you a different answer than I would have now and I’m sure a similar story can be said for almost any student. Lifetime goals evolve as we mature and grow throughout life, and my high school career reflects these changes.…
Whenever thinking of my short and long-term goals, five total goals come clearly to my mind. Three of them are short-term goals, and two of them are long-term goals. My first short-term goal is getting a leadership position in Sigma Alpha.There are multiple officer positions, and I want to apply to one. My second short-term goal is to get a job as a Summer Staff member at Gasper River Catholic Youth Camp & Retreat Center.

My third short-term goal is to become a peer mentor for the Agriculture LLP (2017/2018 School Year). If I am offered the position, I will help freshman make the transition into college a smoother process. One of my long-term goals is to own a farm, and house. The other long-term goal is to become an agriculture education professor.…
My most immediate personal goal is to become a doctor, specifically a radiology oncologist, so that I can help others in need. With my values of compassion, healthy-living and respect, I will diagnose, treat, and care for my every patient. In addition, I do not plan on limiting the care I give within the walls of the hospital or clinic. I hope to be a part of Doctors Without Borders, an international medical humanitarian organization that helps treat people with the greatest needs. If my future circumstances allow me to, I want to devote a few years to this non-profit organization. Through my work, I aim to increase…
The academic goal I would like to achieve this year is getting a 3.8 GPA for my sophomore year. A few ways I can achieve this is to do all my homework, study all my tests/quizzes‘, and most important to stop being lazy. The challenges I will face trying to accomplish this goal is I could become very gregarious and not want to do any of the work I receive.

This goal is extremely important to me because I want to go to a good university and be successful and by succeeding in school and passing my classes it will allow me to do whatever I want to pursue.…
