My Personal Goals

There are things which have been left undone because of some personal setbacks, but

as it is said “time is the best healer” and this holds true as I am back in school as an

adult with more experience so that I could complete the doctoral study and earn a

degree. Currently, my goal is to achieve the degree, learn new things and to apply the

knowledge which I learn in the class in real world. My focus is to ho-an my skills, learn

new things and advance higher so that I have a personal satisfaction of completing the

things which I have left undone. I feel that the learning that I will have here will help me

to apply these in the business which I intend to start. Already having experience in the

business world has proven to me that it is essential to have skills to maintain and

improve daily functions. Three skills I’d personally like to improve on are my

Interpersonal skills, time management, and presentation skills.

At my place of employment for the past five years, I’ve noticed that as I gain more and

more responsibilities, it becomes harder to remember appointments or find items on my

desk. The need to become more organized is quickly becoming a necessity. If I were

more organized, I’d spend less time searching for things and would have more time to

dedicate to my new responsibilities. This, in effect, will help improve my time

management skills at work which will hopefully rub off on my habits in my personal life.

If improvement was made on my interpersonal and time management skills, I’d hope

that I’d feel more prepared and therefore, more comfortable to make presentations in

both the classroom and the workplace. Therefore, I feel like I have to pursuit my goals

and gain more knowledge to make changes and take over as a manager or supervisor.

Apart from the above stated things which I need to put in place so that I can be

effective, I guess I have to be more technological oriented, because technology saves a

lot of time. One can do things from Smartphones or tablets and can control things too.

Technology is fast becoming a necessity and people are looking at it to make their

career more effective.

I know that after having such a huge amount of industry exposure and the studies

which I have done before makes me an ideal candidate for this course. The years

of on field experience has given me confidence that I can achieve my doctoral

degree. I know I have to work hard for this, and yes I am ready to do so. My go

getting attitude and not to give up at the time of crisis makes me an ideal person

to achieve such a high regard degree.

Career Objectives

In the article "Anxiety: Challenge by Another Name," James Lincoln Collier

explains that anxiety is a very common part of our life in our society and that to

defeat anxiety is to confront it and face it as we grow and learn from it instead of

backing away. Collier uses several of his personal experiences and explains

how each helped him to overcome his anxiety. With each obstacle that he faced,

he developed three basic rules for himself. Collier had a chance to go on a trip to

Argentina with his roommate, Ted. Being away for two months sounds exciting

but he is having a second thought, and he end up turning down the invitation. It

scared him of being in a new, strange country. He regrets by not going through

the Argentina trip, and it taught him a lesson. This lesson made him developed

his first rule: "do what makes you anxious, don't do what makes you depressed."

He also found out that the person he admired, Duke Ellington, still has stage

fright, even though he has been performing for more than thirty years, and by

knowing that, Ellington inspired Collier. After doing a couple of interviews, he

noticed that he is not that scared anymore. He had benefited and discovered

from the process of psychologist call "extinction." Which he had come up with

his second rule: "you'll never eliminate anxiety by avoiding the things that caused

it." Collier had put out his anxiety by confronting it; in addition, Collier developed

his third rule: "you can't learn if you don't try." To illustrate his third rule, some

years ago he had an offer to do a writing assignment that will require him to three

months of travel to Europe. Furthermore, Collier is unable to speak French but it

didn't stop him on accepting the assignment. In the end, Collier points out that "the new

the different, is almost by definitions scary. But each time you try something, you learn,

and as the learning piles up, the world opens to.

The greatest thing I think to do is to be involved in Research activity of finding

what areas of interest is suitable. After the interest area is known one needs to do

research and development and make sure that enough research is done so that

the area of interest act as an advantage. Anxiety is something that should always

be there and one should keep on looking for answers till he is satisfied, this what

I do, keep looking for answers. Anxiety is what keeps me going, knowing about

new things is what I consider best and it keeps me up to date too. I think this

doctoral degree will help me to achieve my goals and I would be able to do just to

this degree.

My mission statement

What is our purpose in life? Myself and many others and have asked this question, yet

there is no Universal answer. I however, have been able to come to a conclusion as to

how I would like to lead my life. My life mission statement is to be able to help others

and those around me through hard work, loyalty and teaching. I’ve been able to decide

my life mission statement through various experiences in my life which includes

volunteering work, sports and my education. Along with creating my life mission

statement, I’ve also been able to create an outline as to how my life will be in the future

and how I plan to succeed in fulfilling my life mission statement.

Throughout my life I’ve been involved in various extra-curricular activities ranging from

school clubs to volunteer work. There are two volunteer organizations that I was part of

which helped me shape my life mission statement; volunteering at my local homeless

shelter and being a part of a church mentoring program which help young adults

continuing their high school education. As I look upon their faces when they graduate

and receive their (GED) general education development it makes me feels I accomplish

something in life.

In the end, I have a great deal of time ahead of me in my life to continue pursuing my

life mission statement. Currently, I’ve began in the right direction to leading myself

towards my life mission statement. To reach the point in my life where I will feel like I’ve

completed this objective will involve a great deal of effort and commitment, however, I

feel that the rewards in return will be worth the struggles. I look forward to being able to

further help those around me while at the same time enjoying what I do.

Saying it all, I would like to extend my thank you to all of my faculties and mentors who

holds a very important position in my life, as I am here because of their guidance. I just

want to keep doing good work with all my efforts put in. There is a long way to go in my

academics now and I want to just focus on one thing at a time.
