achiever. I set goals and accomplish them. I tend to refer to Thomas Jefferson’s quote, “Determine never to be idle… it is wonderful how much may be done if we are always doing.” Accomplishments are only made when doing. Accomplishments should be typical goals for every person. Accomplishments are beneficial to everyone that achieves them. In order to make accomplishments in school, one cannot be idle. If idled, one’s health may begin to suffer. In addition, one cannot continue life goals if not busy.
Starting college, I have set up many goals for myself. All of my goals are to help me stay focus and motivated during my four years here at Shorter University. Three goals I have set for myself are to stay healthy, which means running three times a week, to step out of my comfort zone, and to grow closer with God. These goals help me see the big picture and where I will be my senior year. One main goal I have set for myself is to run two to three time a week. I have found this passion for running
the final gateway of our life. Some people want to know when they are going to die but some people don’t. Both things have pros and cons. Although it could induce frustration, despair, and sorrow, I would want to know when I am going to die because accomplish to live a meaningful life, gives a chance to say goodbye to my fellows, and it provides a time to ready and prepare for my death.

important for everyone. College teaches people the skills that they would use later on their life. For instance, an important skill to learn is hard work because it requires a great deal amount of effort to achieve a goal. It could be any goal that a person wants to accomplish such as working overtime in order to get more money to buy a new car. Without this important skill, people would not be able to accomplish their goals, wishes and dreams. The point is not the skill hard work, but how to achieve
become better in life every day. The obstacles that I have faced have made me realize that I want to seek a change and betterment in the future. I have made myself aware that education is extremely valuable because it leads us to obtain knowledge of the world that surrounds us and helps us learn about life. I am committed to achieve my goals by persistently working hard academically and being community active at Knapp Medical Center and in extracurricular activities. I know that my persistence to achieve
I look at my friends score. Birdie, Birdie, Par, etc. Total:37 after nine holes. Then I glance over at my score +4, triple bogey and even a +5. Total: 69 after nine holes. These were the numbers that I had when I first started golfing in the 10th grade. I would watch my teammates hitting about 300 yard drives and sinking every putt in one stroke while I would hit a pitching wedge about 60 yards and take about 4 putts. So, I knew that I wasn’t up to snuff at golf and wondered why was I put in the
On June 30, 2014, my daughter and I were the victims of a distracted driver. The driver did not have his hands on the wheel on a curvy road, paying more attention to his frosty than the road. He crossed over the solid line and hit us head on. Fortunately, my daughter escaped with minor injuries. Unfortunately, I did not. I was taken to a trauma center with two broken wrists, broken right ankle and shattered left foot. I went into surgery that evening to receive titanium plates and screws in both

My journey to discovering my vocation has not been the straightest path. Someone once told me, “Whatever you are, be a good one.” These words of advice are constantly hovering in the back of my mind because even when I am not certain of where I am going, I strive to be successful in what I am doing at that particular time. This has challenged me to live in the moment, and for someone that obsessively plans, this is not easy. However, my journey resembles this struggle because discovering what roles
