Recommended: the importance of goal setting

"I do believe that when we face challenges in life that are far beyond our own power, it's an opportunity to build on our faith, inner strength, and courage. I've learned that how we face challenges plays a big role in the outcome of them." When I first read this quote from Sasha Azevedo it quickly reminded me of the challenges we face to accomplish our educational goals and how it builds our faith, inner strength, and courage to continue. I have learned that how I face my educational challenges will play a big role with my educational success. I have chosen to succeed those challenges, establish goals, and become someone in this world that will make a positive change to our society.

Looking back, I would not be the person I am today if it weren’t for the encouragement, family values, and dedication my family has instilled in me. Over the course of my life I have strived to become a devoted student, wife and employee. These attribute arising from my personal experiences that I have gained in life. It has been through my journey in life that I have learned that having determination in what you desire is the key to success. Never giving up on your goals and what one dreams of doing is essential in surpassing the bumps along the road to success. I have gained many experiences throughout my life and look for the positive aspects of any situation so that I may better myself in the future.

In the past I have obtained 3.4 GPA average, although it is not at the rate I would have preferred. I have come to the conclusion that my education will be my top priority and have decided to commit more than 100% of myself towards my education by resigning with my current employer. This proves my educational commitment to myself, to your institution, and the importance to succeed as a professional in the field. In a struggling economy it will be a strenuous challenge but one that will pay high dividends in the long run.

I have chosen Argosy University because of your prestigious reputation and perseverance your staff members have towards giving students the necessary educational tools to become a successful professional. I yearn to become part of your distinguished alumni group and represent your school by providing positive changes within society.
