My Life Goals: My Goals And Setting Goals

Decent Essays
Setting goals gives me a long-term and short-term motivation. It also gives me the confidence that I need to make higher and more complicated goals. By setting goals and constantly reminding myself of them, I feel as though I work hard to meet my goals. In order to succeed I believe setting goals is very important. Some of the goals that I have set for myself are that I want to play college softball, be able to inspire someone, and travel to new places. One of my first goals that I have set for myself is that I want to play college softball when I get older at a D1 school. This was one of the very first goals that I made for myself when I was really little. I have always loved softball and that’s been my passion ever since I was in 1st grade. …show more content…
I believe that everyone on this Earth has a purpose in life. Ever since I was little my dad has always told me that his purpose on this Earth is to raise my sister and I. So I believe that my purpose on this Earth is to inspire someone with the actions that I do. I have always love the feeling of helping others achieve their goals and push them to their limits. I don’t care if I inspire them to do a little thing like, wake up in the morning and go to school of a big thing like, inspire them to strive for their goals and improve their craft. I would just love to have that feeling of going to sleep at night and saying to myself “Wow I just inspire someone to do something today that they thought they would never do and push them out of their comfort …show more content…
I’ve always lived by the quote “Live life to the fullest, because tomorrow is never promised.” and what I take from this quote is do things that you never would think of you doing, go out your comfort zone, and travel to exotic/different places. I’m the type of person that goes outside of their comfort zone sometimes so, I mostly pay attention to the traveling part of the quote. I’ve always want to travel because I want to expand my perspective on life. Meeting people from other places will show me that my view of the world isn’t the same as everyone else’s. One place that i have always wanted to go is Australia because it’s on a completely different continent, to learn about their cultures their, and to just let loose and have a good time. I’ve always thought that there’s more to this world then our little bubble that we live in. You can’t imagine how different life is in another place until you have seen it for yourself. By being exposed to new places, people and cultures, you’ll develop a wider view of the

    My Personal Goal Statement Every day I wake up, I ask myself how I can make a difference. This question has helped shape my personal values and principles and directed my path into the nursing field. Growing up in West Africa and witnessing firsthand the sufferings and impoverishment of the people around me, I developed a sense of compassion and willingness to make a difference and help alleviate their sufferings and put a smile on their faces. Healthcare delivery and poverty are two major underlying factors in the challenges faced in Africa, thus, when I got an opportunity to come into the United States, it was my golden ticket to finally give back to the community and make a difference. This led me into the nursing field; I started out as a Certified Nurse Assistant.…

    The main reason why I think that HACC is the best choice for me is because of the cost. The rates per credit are around $250 and that is for in-state residents. The total cost for a commuter would be around $13,750 for a student who is full time, which means they are taking 12 credits per term (Stager). This price of $13,750 includes the price of books, supplies, food, and transportation and it is an average price for all HACC students (HACC.edu). I think that I could easily cut some of the cost by trying to buy my books online for a cheaper price or even eating at home to save a lot of money.…

    Class, Currently, setting goals that are realistic and measurable is something that I really struggle with. One goal that I had that I am just now seeing come to life is my goal to get back into being apart of the worship team at my church.

Since I didn't have a specific plan on how I was going to achieve this goal it took me over 3 months to get started and be able to be apart of the team. If i would have had more of a sence of urgency to achieve this goal it would have taken me less then a month.…
