Goals are important to have; it helps you to focus your energy and perform to your best abilities. Growing up my mom always wanted us to establish goals because it would give us something to look forward to and feel accomplished once we reached that goal. Before coming to college I knew it was important for me to not only set long term goals but short term goals as well; motivation to keep me going to reach my long term goals. As a result I ended up with 3 short-term goals, and three long-term goals and I feel that me being at Spelman will not only help me to meet these goals but set new ones and I am well aware of that. As with anything in life when you gain new knowledge things in your perspective will change; which is why I am open to my goals changing.
My first short-term goal is to maintain a GPA of 3.5 and higher. There are many reasons for this; one because my parents expect nothing but the best, secondly because I know that I can accomplish it. During our first meeting with Dr. Blash she was explaining her expectations for us as Health Science majors. She posed the question to us “ what GPA do you need to maintain for this semester ?” My immediate response was 3.5 and she looked a little taken aback and replied “ I was gonna say at least a 3.0 but now it’s 3.5.” Although we are stem majors and our workload may be more intense then some we need to push ourselves to knew heights. My first long-term goal connect with my first short-term goal ; to graduate college
I have decided on what I wanted to do with college since I was a child. It sounds ridiculous, but I am passionate about what I want to do. I was inspired at a very young age since I was in third grade, and I knew that I wanted to be a teacher. A teacher for what grade is what I did not know. As my family grew bigger with my nephews and nieces, I realized that I wanted to be surrounded by kids. I put what I wanted with my passion and got major. My intended major is to receive a double major in Primary and Elementary education, my goal is to receive a Masters in at least one of these majors.
This story provides us with a very un-just look on society. Candide and all the other characters in the book are put in situations where they suffer from the hands of other people. For starters, Candide is kicked out of the Baron’s castle for the simple act of kissing the girls that he loves. On his journey he is beating within an inch of his life for no good reason. It seems that people who had the money had the power and took advantage of those people who had nothing.
Macbeth, a tradgedy writen by William Shaekespear and first preformed in 1606 expresses themes through imagery, motif, symbolism, etc. The main theme in this play, as well as the theme that stood out to me the most was, the destruction wrought when ambition goes unchecked by moral constraints. Oxford Dictionary defines the word ambition: A strong desire to do or achieve something. Characters including, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, show that they are ambitious through ambition and actions.
People use their goals to measure success in life, for the big and small things alike. Goals can be used to keep people accountable for their time and their activities. My goals are very important to me. I will always strive to have good grades and focus on my mental health; however, I also want to feel good about my physical health as well as make lasting friendships that will last for my time at Western and, hopefully,
I’ve always had a passion for children. When I was little I use to always want to work in a day care. When I got my first childcare job, I realized I loved kids and wanted to do more that just work at a daycare. I felt that I would learn a lot from this degree, so that it would benefit me in my new found loved career. Having this undergraduate degree will help me strive in the direction that I would like to go in life.
By the end of my senior year, my main priority, like any other senior, is to wear my cap and gown, walk across the stage, and receive my high school diploma. To accomplish this goal, I must continue excelling in school with all A’s and maintaining my diligent study skills. I also need to take as many dual enrollment courses at Clayton State University as possible in order to shorten my time in college. After graduating, the next leading goal is to get accepted into either Emory University or University of Georgia, but preferably Emory. Should Emory accept me, then I definitely need to apply to and receive scholarships like Gates Millennium and Zell Miller, for example. In addition, I desire to preserve my current rank as the salutatorian. Perhaps if I persevere more, then I could possibly graduate as the valedictorian. To do this, I can always study harder and receive tutoring about topics I do not completely comprehend. Also, somewhere along the lines, I hope that can obtain a job as a

A long-term personal goal that I have always had for myself is to graduate high school with my academic honors and technical honors diplomas, to get it I had to work my butt off. I had always studied for every test, made sure to at least receive a B or higher on any assignment. The hard work has paid off now because that is the path that I am on now to receiving a diploma. I had a lot of barriers though, like probation and family losses, but I made sure just to focus on me and know that life always goes on and I should
Knowing what I excel at has given me the ambition to rise to the challenge of earning a college degree. I have attempted on line school seven years ago and I had to make the difficult decision to withdraw from school when my family and financial obligations became overwhelming. I look back on that experience and have been able to analyze myself and now know what was lacking in my life at that time. I was not close with my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I was attempting to control all the angles of my life alone instead of allowing the Lord to help me. In the midst of my struggle for control I was unsure of my own strengths, passions, and abilities. Since that time I have been working in the human services field as the assistant director of a local adolescent girls group home. Working with at risk
Scholarships are more than just an amount of money; they are are steps to help reach your goal. If I was awarded this scholarship, it would put me one step close to paying for my college education and my goal to help people. My personal goal for when I get out of college is to work for the agricultural sector of the government and to be involved in politics. I have a dream of one day being in the position where I can develop an organization that would teach inner city families how to produce food on their own. I would teach them the basic concept of urban agriculture, which is growing produce in a heavily populated town or municipality. My goal would be for them to realize that they do not need to rely on government handouts to survive; they

As a child and even as a teenager one tends to make dreams and set goals for life. On occasion these goals are far stretched and sometimes even fairy-tale like, we tend to see life through a rose-colored glass, not taking into account the many sidetracks life throws our way. At that stage in life our goals tend to be less focused and somewhat unreachable. However, the process of growing up, or maturing, tends organized and center our goals, we learn to make compromises and set goals for our goals. There are different types of goals, short term and long term. I have learned to separate the many goals I have into three main categories: family, professional and personal.

It gives me the motivation to work hard every day so that I can achieve my goals. Goals are what keeps each of us different. Throughout my life, I hope to continue to set goals.
