...Everyone should have personal goals that evolve around anything that needs to be accomplished. I set goals on a daily basis. One goal that I seem to have not truly focused on has been my college education. Considering all things, I decided I needed to focus on my college education. The first thing I needed to accomplish was to enroll in an institution for higher learning. Now that my enrollment is complete, I am an official student at the University enrolled in the undergraduate program for business management. As a student at the university, I now have to set personal goals so that I will be successful in my endeavors. My personal goals are to gain personal growth and development and graduate from my undergraduate program in business management with honors. After my completion of the undergraduate program I will then move on to a master's program. To accomplish my goal of personal growth and development, I will make sure that by the end of every course I take I will have a full understanding of the subject matter. This is where I will take advantage of the learning teams that are offered in conjunction with individual learning. The way I look at the learning teams is that they are there for me to learn and share experiences with my peers. If there is something that I do not fully understand, I can in turn go to my learning team for the answer. If I cannot get the answer from my team then I will go to the instructor. I will not stop until I have a full understanding of ...

I spent many days and nights reading the works of my favorite authors, and even my mother’s old textbooks from college. I felt certain I would grow up, go off to college, begin my career, and be successful. When I was first asked the question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”, the possibilities seemed endless. However, I had no concrete answer to this question. I thought, “I simply want to be happy, help others, and be passionate about what I do.” Little did I know, answering this question would be something I would struggle with beyond my high school career.

Rather, what I have experienced as an Emergency Medical Technician will enable and guide me to fulfill my goals at CCU. While studying to become an EMT, I heard many instructors warn us that if we proceed in the field, we would develop a morbid sense of humor and a desensitization towards our patients. I didn’t believe this would prove true to me. I was a caring, compassionate person, who wanted to be a Pediatric Registered Nurse. After working in the field for only about a month, I had a patient die on my gurney. Being left to grieve on my own, an empathy switch flipped off in me and what I once thought would never happen, did, in fact, happen....

...Personal Responsibility Lee A. Cruz Gen 200 James Bailey September 13th, 2012 As the great Eleanor Roosevelt once stated, “In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.” Personal responsibility consists of knowing oneself, maintaining psychological and physical health, and knowing the choices we make today may influence our future. Determining your goals in life, time management and prioritizing your wants dictates your day by day personal actions. Taking accountability of your own actions and accepting the consequences that come from your actions is a personal responsibility. For instance, some of the goals in my life include: maintaining physical fitness, working towards a college degree, and using my education to further my career with the Department of the Navy. It is my personal responsibility to asses my realistic goals, prioritize them in order of importance, and enforce actions to make these goals come about. Personal responsibility not only involves taking action, but also realizing the consequences of those actions if your goal is not obtained. Time-management and prioritizing goals will help to clarify how personal responsibility plays a role in everyday decisions. The relationship between my personal responsibility and college success go hand and hand. It is my personal aspiration to further my education by earning a college...
