State of Purpose to Enter the Air Force

My desire to serve in the United States Air Force as a commissioned officer stems from the environment in which I grew up and an underlying, deep-rooted desire for public service. Many members of my family were privileged to serve in different capacities. In fact, I was able to obtain academic credentials because of their service. I feel that it is only right that I spend a portion of my life using the knowledge, skills, and abilities I have earned to serve my country in this capacity.

My personal goals are becoming top in ROTC, and being more social in life. My hopes are that

My goals are like every other person; I go for the most outgoing ones that some people don’t even know about. One of my greatest goals is to be in a cooking competition and do my best in it even if I don’t win I want to leave everyone wanting more. Another of my goals is to be on the big screen in any sporting

I believe that goals can give me strong motivations and guide me in a right way to pursue them. My short-term goal is to

Setting goals for yourself is an important aspect to help achieve success in life. Setting goals not only helps guide you to be successful, but also helps a person believe in themselves

Throughout my academic career, my grades and accomplishments have always been of extreme importance to me. To keep up with my goals, for example, making honor roll every quarter, I have taken steps and faced setbacks that have enabled me to see the big picture rather than focusing on the little issues that could discourage me from reaching those goals. To make the honor roll at my high school means obtaining a 3.5 grade point average or above for the entire quarter. As a freshman, I made it my goal to meet this standard throughout my complete high school career. To do this, I studied hard for every one of my classes, always did my homework, and put in as much effort as I could; I gave it my all. Through tough classes and staying up all night

If you do not set goals or achievements for yourself then, you will not be successful in life. One major goal that I set for myself is to be elected at the ROTC program at Colts Neck High School. Unfortunately, it will not be an easy goals to achieve. It is going to a long bumpy ride until I reach my destination. However, if I study hard, complete all of my school assignments, and get antoshining grades then, I can find a shortcut to make this ride shorter and maybe even smoother after all. Also, participation is one of the main keys to achieving this goal. I make sure that I participate in class and in after school activities such as track and field and basketball because then my teachers and my coach could recommend me. This single goal persily will overall make me smarter and a hardworking student by the end of the year.

Upon graduation, it is my goal to be a distinguished graduate and maintain my 4.0 GPA. When I completed my freshman year, I was unhappy with my GPA, but had the motivation to raise it nearly three points higher the following year. Doing well in school has not only come to me because I know it is necessary in order to have a great future, but it is also used to challenge me. Having this challenge allows me to complete my work on time and award myself with the feeling that I know I did exceptional on an assignment.

Goals are something that each individual should have, however, they can be short term or long term. My short term goal over the next year; I would like to

Everyone has aspirations, some tend to be more steadfast, others last only a short amount of time. A goal is something we aim for, something that we try our best to keep a firm grip on.

I have learned not to limit myself to just one goal. One lifelong goal is to be a person of influence who consistently impacts the lives of others. I am accomplishing this goal by being involved in events such as the March of Dimes, Meals on Wheels, Trees for Troops, and a variety of other significant events in the community. Another goal is to complete my biology degree with honors, which I am making strides towards by maintaining a 3.7 GPA. Once I receive my degree, I will eventually pursue a doctoral degree in Veterinarian Aquatic Science. One of the most important goals that I have is to be the best airman I can possibly be. I could never repay the Air Force for the opportunities it has afforded me, but I can exemplify all of those things through dedication, determination, and

Goal setting has always been an important factor in my life, because of that I have accomplished things that I am very proud of. Without goals it would make it very hard to succeed in life because there is nothing to work hard for. Goal setting is a constant reminder of the things that are important to you. 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.

Goal setting and attainment appears to be a straightforward proposal. You simply come up with an obtainable goal and then you work hard to make it a reality. To begin with I give myself short-term and long-term goals to achieve. Before I joined the Army my short term goal was to achieve the rank of Sergeant (E-5). My next short term goal wasn’t to just achieve the next rank of Staff Sergeant (E-6) I wanted to aim a little higher and make Sergeant First Class (E-7) within eight years, which I did. My long term goal was to ultimately make it to the rank of Sergeant major (E-9). This goal is going to be harder to achieve, but I know as long as I work hard I will achieve that goal. Goals are great, but without follow through these goals will never come to fruition. By breaking down goals into smaller goals a person will gain confidence and can eventually turn those small term goals in long term goals. I knew that I could not just jump to Sergeant Major and that’s why I set small short-term goals to achieve that rank. What is going to make me successful not only in my career, but also in my everyday life is accomplishing one short term goal at a time. To obtain a Goal it requires steps or processes to achieve the desired outcome which, according to Tim Harford, includes failure.

Setting goals is the most important thing you can do in your life. Without goal's you are going to have no direction, no ambition to be successful, no drive to stay in school, and trouble finding a career that will provide for you. Without these three things, achieving your goals is going to be one of the toughest tasks in the years to come.

The goals are a personal investment of my time, commitment, and effort in planning for my future. My goals represent a clear path with a timeframe to achieve my goals, such as completing my bachelor’s degree, attending workshops for advancing my technological skills, and obtaining a higher level position in my current workplace or finding new employment.
