Healthcare Administration Goals

Improved Essays
We all have goals and dreams for our lives. My three main goals are to work at a hospital by obtaining a college degree in Healthcare Administration Management, to become a minister with a degree in Biblical Studies, and for personal improvement. These three goals are also my dreams, and I am obtaining them by attending Colorado Christian University (referred to as CCU from here on in.) Due to my faith in God, poor health and living in a rural area, the online programs offered through CCU allows me to accomplish all of these goals. “Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still; teach the righteous and they will add to their learning, teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.

The area I have found lacking is the administration, which is the main area of work I have done.

This is one of the main reasons I hope to work at St. Mary’s Hospital in Grand Junction or Montrose Memorial Hospital in Montrose once I have my degree. I am really good at remembering faces and people, even if I have met them once. This, along with my other administration skills, will assist me to gain this dream and goal. “The key is not to prioritize what’s on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities.” (Covey, …show more content…
So, to me, becoming closer to God by learning about Him and His Word in Biblical Studies is the biggest personal improvement I can make. It also makes sense that gaining two college degrees is another path to personal improvement, and with my degree in Healthcare Administration Management I am improving myself exponentially. “Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambitions inspired, and success achieved.” (Unknown, 2002) Learning good study habits, how to prioritize and schedule your time, and doing the necessary work on time in college will be carried over into your work habits as well, so personal improvement is gained once again. Since most employers are looking for these kind of skills when hiring because they show a good character, I will accomplish my career and bring God with
