My personal goals

Introduction

There is a very fine saying by Alan Lakein “Planning is bringing the future into the present so that you can do something about it now”. Life without a plan is like a journey to your destination without a road map which ultimately increases the probability of getting lost. Every one today focuses on the goals and objectives that they would strive for in the near future but the real planning not only engulfs the short term objectives but the goals of long run as well. Everyone have their aims in life so do I, however, the difference is that I have categorized my objectives in order to assign priorities and to clearly describe the roadmap that would lead me towards my destination. I have categorized my goals into four main classifications; short term personal, short term professional, long term personal and long term professional goals.

I can also attain physical fitness by participating at different sporting activities organized at school. However, there is one more thing which is very important besides exercise and sport to stay physically fit that is proper nutrition. Adequate diet is crucially significant to attain physical fitness, because we perform lot of tasks in our daily life and these tasks demand consumption of energy (Watson, 1999). If I follow proper diet plan, I would remain fit as the energy needed for the tasks would be efficiently allocated. To attain this goal I would develop a proper diet plan and also utilize my time management skills because in order to achieve my entire objective I will have to allocate proper time to them.

After my short term personal goal my second priority would be to achieve my short term professional goal. My short term professional goal is to become a certified medical surgical registered nurse (CMSRN). Certified Medical-Surgical Registered Nurse (CMSRN) is the received official document that distinguishes that the uppermost standards of medical-surgical nursing practice have been achieved by the potential candidate (Polit, ...
