Personal Statement : My Personal Goals

When I think of my career goals, I ask myself what I want to accomplish in life. I know that I love helping patients and families, and I want to continue to do that. I always am changing my mind on what I want to do after my BSN. I don’t know when or if I will get my masters or continue to work at the bedside for a while. I love what I do and what I do for other people and families. Working in the critical care unit feels like home. I get to do what I love.

A long term educational goal for me was going back to school after 4 years and a second child. I kept putting it off for months and months .I was extremely intimidated due to the fact that I had two kids to support and; I would only be able to work part time. Finally I had to drive to greenwood to see the dermatologist and I said that would be the day I go to Kaplan. To make sure I reached my goal I started by cutting down my work hours and keeping in touch with my advisor. My goals were achieved after a month and I was proud it made me feel like I could achieve anything as long as I put my mind to it.

I strongly believe that everyone should have access to a high quality education and to have the opportunity to academically develop to their full potential. With each decade we enter a new era of globalization, and our classrooms are becoming increasingly diverse. My main goal as an educator is to provide students from all cultural and linguistic backgrounds with tools to support their intellectual, social, cultural, and emotional development.

For the first year I would need $5,745 for tuition, $10,196 for room, and $1,300 for books $865 for fees. I should be considered for this scholarship because I want to be successful in college; I don’t want to be stressed for lack of money. I know I haven’t been the best student but I guarantee that I will be in college. I guarantee that because I will study so hard and keep my grades up so I can be successful.

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

My long-term professional goal is to become a graduate/ medical school instructor. I cannot think of another profession that would be as rewarding as helping students receive a higher education. Anatomy has always been an interest of mine. I fell in love with anatomy my sophomore year of high school. Every year Mrs. Kamm took three sophomores into her Anatomy class that was only supposed to be open to juniors. She told us that usually out of the three sophomores one receives an A, a B, and a C. I knew I did not want to be the C student. I worked persistently throughout her class and ended up being the A student. That was the first time I felt my hard work pay off. I knew I deserved that grade because I put so much time and work into the class.

My Primary goal is to succeed and advance in my education. I want to have my own Health business . I must first have knowledge and the education to educate people. I am willing to take the sacrifice and the commitments to go to a higher education to make my goals succeed. It takes self-discipline. I am looking beyond the doubts and creating my future. I don't want to look back and have regrets for not advancing in education. When someone look at me, I want them to see a girl who takes her work serious and to the next level.

After three years of being accountant I realized i need to do more than sit at a computer all day. I decided to go back to school to get my teaching credential. Becoming and being a teacher It is the most challenge thing I’ve done, but that’s what makes it so great. The challenge is what I need, and there are new ones everyday. These challenges lead to discover new ways to create successful students.

Participation in this program will support me and my goals to be the first person in my family to receive higher than a bachelor’s degree. I plan to receive my Ph.D. in abnormal child psychology, and I am currently in early education and care at my high school as my career path. I truly believe that I connect on a personal level with children and my interest in mental illnesses and why they occur fits into that career description perfectly. I would like to leave Delaware and experience the world, starting with where I attend college. Louisiana State University, Spellman University, or Texas A&M are my top 3 colleges that I would love to attend and pursue my career goals. I aspire to be very successful in everything that I have planned to do

Selecting me as a candidate for SPREP, will not only benefit me, but benefit the others around me, even the teachers. The qualifications for this program include a student with a strong interest in medicine, a mature personality, a maintenance of an 80% average, and an ethnic background. Luckily, by choosing me as a candidate, I have all of these attributes and many more which will prove my candidacy an excellent decision.

Ever since a young age, I have aspired to become a strong, hard-working woman. Throughout high school I have gone through some personal trials that have tested my own belief in accomplishing my dream, but perseverance led me to Central Michigan University. People say that every challenge you face will make or break you, and I believe that Nouvel Catholic Central made me into the person that is here today. With all the occurrences that have led me here today, I will go forth with tenacity and determination to persevere through my college years into becoming the professional I believe I can be and face any obstacle that may come forth with steadfastness and indefatigability.

As a child, there were times when I may have felt my voice wasn’t being heard or that no one around me cared about what was happening in my life. Those specific feelings caused me to act out. I later realized that there were so many people and resources around me to help resolve what I believed to be huge issues. This realization drove me to want to also be that person for a child who may feel the same way I did.

My philosophy and goals are not something that I have sat and pondered, not until something happens in my life that makes me take a step back and examine who I am and what I want out of life. In order to find that out, I will need to reflect upon what my purpose or mission in life is and how it relates to the way I conduct myself and the choices I make. I have set goals throughout my life, but I need to make sure they are laid out in such a way that working towards them promotes my mission. There may prove to be difficulties along the way that I will have to overcome, however if I hold true to my belief in my purpose, I can accomplish my goals and fulfill my mission.

A personal mission statement is a philosophy or creed that one plans to follow in daily life. It is usually designed with positivity, purpose, and with personal goals for every aspect of life such as career, finances, etc. It also focuses on personality traits that one would like to possess and the accomplishments that one wants to achieve, both short-term and long term. It also houses the individuality of the person writing it. Every person writing a personal mission statement is will produce a different statement. This is primarily because people value different things, characteristics and have different goals. The purpose of this paper is to explore my mission statement (Covey, 2013, pp.113).
