How you ever sat down and just put any thought into what are some things you wish you could change? Or what changes you can do in the future to get to where you want to be? I’m sure you have, and I’m sure you have had regrets. I know I have, and here are some things I wish I could change and some of my future life goals both career and educational.
One thing I wish I could change was the day I broke my mom’s heart. I was still in high school, when I decided I should move out and live with my brother. My mom and I have never really had a great relationship with each other. With me always lying to her about where I was, who I was with, and what I was going to do. It was always constant arguing and disagreeing on everything. One day, we just really got into it and she told me “my roof, my rules” so that is when I told myself, “Yup, I need to just pack my bags and leave tonight, that will fix everything.” and without thinking that’s what I did. I waited until my mom and dad went to sleep and just left without them hearing. I had left a note and told my mom I was leaving the house because I was tired of her, her rules, and our relationship. That next morning my mom called me and sounded really upset and hurt. Making me start feeling bad and having regrets. After having time to think, I realized I am just a brat, and take everything for granted. I realized my mom is the way she is with me, because she just really cares about me. I realized I needed to be thankful and take
I looked back at my day to see if I could have changed the outcome of something. I was not particularly happy with it. I think about activities, describe what I did? Would did not go so well? What could I change and way? What I need to improve?
Many say they would, many say they wish they could, and many say they would not change their past. We are all unique containing different experiences and lessons all of which have shaped who we are today. People try to be who they want to be by taking control of their lives. I realized I needed to control my life after always putting people's needs before mine (use something else that relates more to the essay).
to be blessed with everything that I have did. The only thing I would change is being a
I have many times I sometimes wish I could change but then I realize that if I didn't do what I did or if others didn't do what they did, I wouldn't be who I am today. The only thing I want to change about myself now is become more successful and you do that by moving forward, not looking
Going to college has been a dream of mine growing up. I am the first ever in my family to go to college but figuring out how to pay for it has been a challenge. I desire to achieve my academic and career goals and this scholarship can help me succeed in my journey.
Every little thing we do or say is consequential to the events that follow. Many would say that they would not change their past as it would change the present. Simply, I am not satisfied with my present. After considering many candidates to have said 30-minute conversation with, it would be 8-year-old Taylor Thrift. My intentions would be to change the way I had previously viewed my education and my attendance. The world would be a different place and my future would be undeniably changed.
As I look back on my life, I wouldn’t change what happened. Because I was expelled out of school, I had to attend an alternative program which caused me to rethink my life choices. My friends changed along with my relationship with my parents. Since graduation I have been in a serious relationship and gave birth to my son, Austin. I also experienced a serious health problem called graves’ disease that required a thyroidectomy. All these events are making me a stronger person to take back my
In life there are always moments that we wish we could take back. If given the chance to revisit the past and change the outcome of a situation, I would have not dropped out of school and later gotten my GED. I made this decision at a young age, unaware of how this decision would change my future greatly. In deciding to drop out of school, I missed out on the experience that high school gives you and how it would have helped develop my character. If I stayed enrolled in school I would have had more doors opened for my future and the assistance that I would have needed to make those life choices such as college. I would have been able to feel the sense of success, like getting promoted to a higher position, getting rewards for all my hard work at the job, or simply getting employee of the month. I would’ve wanted to finish the four years of high school and know that all my hard work has paid off.
When she was asked what she would change about her past, she said, ''Probably everything but if you're happy with your life today, you have to be appreciative of every single moment that led you to get here.''
My academic goal is to graduate Argosy University with a bachelors degree in Forensic Psychology in three years time. Forensic Psychology is the study of the criminal mind, in a nutshell. The main motivation to achieve this goal would be intrinsic. I love asking questions and knowing the answers as to why people do what they do, and in a criminals case, what led them to committing the crime. This goal, however, may have some extrinsic motivation as well. Being knowledgeable about certain behaviors that criminals poses may help solve or even prevent a crime. In addition, having a degree will help open different paths in life, ones that may present me with greater job opportunities. My attitude toward the learning process will help my achievement of each goal because I am eager, determined and motivated. My greatest desire is to succeed in life, and obtaining an education is one thing I know will help me. I perhaps will need to make some adjustments along my journey. I do not know yet if I will find another educational path that intrigues me the most. For now, I do not feel that any adjustments need to be made.
Toward the end of every year, we begin to think about how our year went and what we want next year to be like. Since it is December I am beginning to think about it. It seems like every year has at least one thing I would change if I could. On the other hand, there are multiple things that I am proud of. My sister moved to Texas in October. That was very difficult for me to accept. However, I got my certified nurse aide certificate in May. Next year, I look forward to graduating. This year, I wish I could change the fact that my sister moved to Texas.
I bet everyone could come up with something that they wish they could do over again, personally I have several things. But if I were, I would probably try harder to not get in trouble for touching other students, punching someone, or bringing toys to school. I would also probably try to get on some of my enemy's good side and so I could become friends with them and so we didn't have conflicts with each other, I would also try to have a healthier lifestyle when It came to food and not to overdo it with wheat so I could try to prevent my wheat allergy.
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.
The future is a time or a period of time in which we follow through from the moment of speaking or writing our intentions. It is a time that has yet still to come. The future is what we work for, to go through school and have a career, in order to have a better life. My parents have taught me to work hard for the things I want, and I wish to have a bright future. That is one of the reasons why I am here at CI, to get an education that will help me find a career with sufficient salary that will support me and my future family.
“Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into visible” -said Tony Robbins, author and life coach. Everyone has challenges throughout their life, but people have strengths that can lead up to effect their future. We use our goals to keep us motivated and our strengths to help us get past the challenges we face. Our weaknesses fade because our strengths become so strong and we are faced with new challenges. With each challenge we overcome we become stronger and we find more strengths in our challenges. I am a great friend because I always care for my friends and i'm their shoulder to cry on. I'm a very strong-willed person because I don't give up on something I want easily. I’m stubborn because I
