Personal Narrative: My Professional Goals

Though I have another year and a half before I complete my schooling, it is always important to find out as much information about my future field of work. Knowing what is to be expected when going in for a job interview will not only be a bonus for myself, but allow me to feel confident when giving answers.

On April 11, I have set two goals on my writing. During the pass two month, I haven’t fogotten the goals I’ve set for my improvement after receving so many 3 or 3-‘s. So I’ve been continuesly woring on my goals while writing stuffs. My goals were to improve my vocabularry and grammar on my writing works. Not too hard right?

As I have soared through the years at Austin High School, my mind has stayed indecisive about my career goals. I am still on the fence about my career choice because it is absolutely imperative to me that I choose the most fulfilling path. My goals and dreams have meandered all the way from wanting to be a Veterinarian, to an Astronomer, to a life coach, to an addiction counselor and finally to a farmer. I have came to the conclusion that it is going to be close to impossible to tie myself down to only one career. I have a variety driven personality, and I have my best times doing things I have never done before. I have decided to combine some of my interests and enter the field of Earth Science and run my own dance studio/fitness center.

My first short-term SMART goal will be to draft boiler plate contracts for my team and clients by January 1st, 2017. This is specific in that I know who these contracts are for. One will be a contract for people working for me. It will clearly define the split we receive from any clients, as well as clearly articulate a non-compete policy that will protect my business from workers who want to steal clients. The second contract will be for parents who want regular work done for their families. I will benefit from the increased security these contracts provide, and the families will benefit from a discounted price, as well as guaranteed service during busy seasons. This goal is measurable in that it can be 0% complete, with no contracts written, 50% complete with one contract written, or 100% complete with both contracts written. This goal is achievable because two months is a reasonable amount of time to write two contracts. It is relevant because it addresses certain business needs that have been overlooked in the course of me wearing multiple business hats. It is time bound because I have set a short term date, and intend to stick to it.

In the action of reading chapter, two in I started to have so many connections within the first two pages. I can relate to Juanita's story in the way that she had to consult with her mom her career change. My family wanted me to go into a law career but I felt that that wasn't the adequate career for and preferred nursing. While they tried to convince me that law school was a better option they understood me at the end and were supportive with my decision. I believe that a nursing career is a great career goal for me not only because of economic but also because I have the feeling I'll be great at taking care and helping people. There is a strong feeling for nursing in me that I have confidence I can become a nurse. many people will second guess their career or take a different job just for the payment but I feel that nursing is the right path and I have no doubts.Reading this chapter has led me to understand in a more complex way how to help myself while I try to learn who I am; this will take a long way life. Although before I can find myself I have to start doing activities that will connect with my mission statement. I know my mission statement is that I

I am applying for the opportunity to be places in the student affairs and college counseling progam because I have always had an aspiration to help students obtain their educational goal. I am a first generation college student in my entire family and I am a vivid imagine of all the obstacles I had to overcome to obtain my education. For example, some of the obstacles are that I had to work while being a full time student at Fresno State, numerous people doubt and criticize my education and myself for wanting to success, and I had to commute to school which is about 45 minutes away. During these 4 years I has to commute because I am also a caregiver for my two younger brothers. For this reason, I made the decision to apply to the master program

Hello Andrew! Thank you for your service, Marine! What influenced you to choose Infantryman as your MOS? It’s great that you’re taking steps to improve your skills to be an asset in your business. What type of business do you have?

My goals after college include getting a doctorate in Veterinary Medicine and serving and supporting the community. I plan to achieve these goals by keeping my perseverance up and not giving up when times get tough. I am persuaded that people around me and academic achievements will get me one step closer to by goals. I am keeping a 4.0 gpa and currently in the top ten percent of my class, however I will continue to push myself to do better. Throughout high school, I have grown closer to the community as a whole by participating in volunteer work. Volunteering has helped me mentally reduce stress and has brought fulfillment to my life. I enjoy every moment of volunteering, because the joy and happiness in others lives are the most priceless

Currently I am employed, however I'm only working about 3 hrs a week which is hardly enough for me to pay for transportation to and from college. Aside from that I don't qualify for fafsa. My end goal education wise, is to obtain either a Master or Doctorate in Physics, Botany, or Astrophysics. If I do qualify, and actually receive this book grant it would help to alleviate some of the financial stress that many college students face, and I feel it would allow me to focus primarily on my classes without having to worry about paying for books with money I don't have. I would simply have peace of mind, by knowing that I have college books taken care of and I don't have to worry about

As a sale professional my professionalism speaks volumes with seven years experience in some of the high scale retail environmental setting. My professionalism consists of experienced implementing specific duties/responsibilities. I started my career young not knowing this would become my pastion my first job was a store in our local mall while I was in high school. From there I fell in love with with every part of retail the customer service, helping customers find there own style, always knowing the newest trends, and meeting new people. I have a personality that could only add to your company dynamics. I'm pretty quick at coming up with solutions and a fantastic team player if there was ever a time that you needed something done in a timely

Growing up as a child, the only educational goal that I knew to accomplish was to successfully graduate from high school. That was the easy part. In May 2008, I graduated from Tuscaloosa County High School with an Advanced Diploma, an active member of Mu Alpha Theta, Beta Club, National Spanish Honor Society and team captain and MVP of the varsity volleyball team. My mission for education had been completed. All of those years of grade school left me exhausted and unwilling to pursue a higher education. However, life’s experiences have taught me to not settle for the bare minimum because I have the ability to reach beyond what is in front of me and excel higher.

Over the course of this semester I decided that for my SMART Goal I wanted to learn a new language, German, and be able to hold a conversation in this language so that I can travel to Germany and visit my boyfriend this summer. Thus far, progress has been very minimal and quite slow. I had originally planned to learn a list of roughly twenty vocabulary words per week, to give myself vocabulary tests based of these words, and to give myself a test every couple of weeks. Frankly, none of that has happened. However, I am still learning new words, but I have shifted a good amount of my focus on to trying to pronounce words which is what I should have started with. Additionally, I got a new resource. A friend of mine is taking German and the University

Gerald had leaned forward and rested his elbows on the table as he’d finished his appraisal, and kept his gaze locked on the actress, keen to see if his words, deliberately constructed to appeal to her ego and self awareness had any effect. His lips curled up slightly at the corners, in what could be taken either as a smile, or an expression of curiosity, and he nodded as she shifted on the sofa, and began to speak, his own gaze never leaving her face, and attemptiedto gauge as much as he could from her expression as the words she spoke.

I admit it feels foreign to write about a simple topic such as my career goals, especially after years of strict APA formatted research papers. With that in mind, I will try to keep this sweet, short, and to the point. If asked about my career goals last year, I would have stressfully answered to graduate nursing school and pass boards. It’s amazing how time has a way of making seemingly impossible hurdles a thing of the past. Currently, my career goals consist of completing my Bachelors of Science in Nursing (BSN), gaining a permanent appointed with Veterans Affairs, and eventually advancing my academic career with a Master’s Degree (MSN).

I designed the primary application interface and implemented it to the customer’s specifications within the first few weeks. This created a solid foundation from which the applications was fleshed out and completed.
