Personal Goal Statement

I completed my BS in Human Services in March 2015. Since that time, I have been researching many colleges fluctuating between the MSW, MFT and Mental Health Counseling degrees. I consider my graduate school decision to be a positive life-altering decision requiring much thought, and research. After an extensive amount of research, and phone conversations, I have decided to pursue a Masters in Marriage Family, and Counseling Therapy.

Drawing characters, backgrounds, rims, cars, or trucks spends most of my pastime. In addition to drawing, I would also like to partake classes in Animation. Art directors earned $56,880 in 2000, and the highest 10% made more than $109,440 dollars. Artist work about 40 hours a week, but during busy periods, they work overtime to meet deadlines.

On a personal level I would like to get better at basketball as well as baseball. In three years i see myself being a little bit more involved in technology and graphic design. Sooner or later like every kid I will turn 18 wich mean time for a job i'm going to go into it strong I think i am going to work at Old Navy. I hopefully will be able to stay in this job as long as possible to make as much money as I can. These goals are important to me because it will make me feel good as a person. It is a good start as a teen to make money. School has prepared me because I will pick the right classes to assist me in my career.

My primary goal in applying to Walden University for Ph.D. program is to prepare myself for a future career in forensic human services administration. Interested in furthering the current body of research and in improving techniques used on the study of the theoretical foundations of organizational behavior and the practice of management and planning. I am very committed to pursuing human services administration and I believe Walden University Ph.D. program will provide me with an excellent foundation in the area of organizational management and planning. With a Ph.D., I will be well prepared to lead a

My third long term SMART goal is a combination of achieving this Masters of Science degree from Western Governors University before Spring 2017 and using what I have learned in my job, specifically in my new territory.

Throughout my professional career, I have had the privilege of leading, supervising and managing teams on many occasions. In each case, it was incumbent upon me to inspire and empower a group of individuals to work together, and obtain the cooperation of many contributing offices and subject-matter experts to ensure the success of a given project or service initiative. My experience as a liaison professional, coupled with my personal diplomacy skills, enabled me to communicate clearly and effectively, negotiate differences, and achieve consensus on a regular basis.

I want to improve my current piano playing skills by advancing at least two levels and be confident in playing in front of a large audience.

Two of my most dominant talents are restorative and achiever. As an individual that is invigorated by the challenge of a sticky situation, I often seek challenges and gain satisfaction from restoring whatever was corrected to functionality (Gallup, 2017). As an achiever, the worth of everyday is measured by the amount of tangible achievement accomplished (Gallup, 2017). The fault in the never-ending drive to accomplish is a constant discontentment (Gallup, 2017).

My S.M.A.R.T goal for the next few months is to be distinguished. I plan to take notes for every class lesson and review for study purposes. I will study for every test coming up, no matter how big or small. I will pay attention and focus on the task or tasks in front of me and not drift off. I will ask questions on anything I need help with or don't understand. I will make time and review my old work and notes a week before the milestones. Using my knowledge, I will try to score a four on the

In my lifetime I have gone through a lot of difficult situations, my grandpa died when I was a freshmen in high school and overcame a death of a classmate just a month after my own car accident. I have also learned a lot from all of this things that has happened to me. I have learned that no matter how bad the situation is you still are able to rise above the the worst of things. That your strengths are the things that carry you through tough positions, and enable you to look into the future and see the great things that came out of the hard times.

Over the past few weeks, I've been striving to reach a personal goal to help or get better in my social wellness. My goal was to be more talkative and less shy, but more specifically to try to hold (or start a conversation that lasts up to 20-30 minutes long by the time week five roles around. I wanted to reach this goal because I tend to find myself to be a little awkward and uncomfortable when I'm in a large group of people I don't know or talking to someone I don't know or usually talk to, so I wanted to fix that.

What I’ve already done to begin to accomplish my goals is to be part of my Health Science class so I can learn more about healthcare careers and what they’re all about. I’ve also gone to the hospital to shadow nurses so I can observe what being a nurse is like. I’ve also been doing community service because I know that later in the future that will help me to pursue my career. I’ve also researched about different universities and colleges that have health science programs.

Many people exercise, climb mountains, compete in extreme sports, and the list could go on all to better one’s self. While one may compete against others, the main goal is best personal goals. To me, that is what going to college and gaining a higher education is about. I do not have a family that has forced me to go, or who even will known when I have accomplished my goals. What I have is the experience of exercising my brain, overcoming financial mountains, and pushing myself to what many times feels like extreme limits. A higher education not only allows one to push beyond what one believes they can do, it allows one to be an example of what the next student can accomplish. College and higher education is about the paving of paths

I want to live my life with family a perfect peaceful area that God allowed me to live.

As I stated in my personal goals, I am focusing in developing my interpersonal skills toward my professional and personal environment. Even though this is not my first psychology class, it is always encouraging to re-learn and discover new findings in psychology. During and after the course, I found myself practicing many of the communication skills throughout my daily life such as paraphrasing, avoid stereotyping and especially analyzing my own and other’s emotions. The collaboration of the course and my experiences, in my own opinion, has built a very sharp sense of my emotional intelligence. I always know that I am sensitive when observing a person’s emotions, but the skills that I gained from this class help to direct the message into more rational interpretation. For example, now I am capable to reduce or set aside my personal judgement when someone is telling me his/her story. I learn how to take the time to step back and digest their words without feeling offended. The most current example is the way I communicate with my husband. We are coming from two different cultural background, and communication could be hard sometime. Many times I realized that it was my frustration of not knowing how to explain things to him without getting mad. And off course a part of it is my ethnocentrism and also his. But as the one who have better understanding about human interaction, I have to be able to apply my communication skills in order to reduce or eliminate conflict. I am
