Nicole's Goals Essay

Close your eyes. Imagine back to year 2002. How old were you that year? When I think of 2002, I was just a seven-year old kid. It’s amazing how time flies. Thankfully, my parents were there to help me and guide me with the past five years, but I’m getting older now and I have to make some decisions on my own. Some of my decisions can affect me later in life. It’s good that I have goals that could help me in the future and help me build a better life by making the right decisions.

In life, a person should have many personal goals. One of my personal goals is to learn how to cook my own meal. I want to accomplish this by reading some good recipe books and asking a few good cooks to teach me how. My other goal is to read more books and to learn more and make my lexile level higher. I can do this by reading more good books everyday and understand what it is about. I know I have a lot of work ahead me, but I plan to accomplish all of my personal goals.

In addition to my personal goals, I also have several academic goals. My first academic goal is to get an A for physical education because I want to get good grades. I could make this happen by working harder and always being on time for class. Furthermore, my second goal is to earn 4.0 for GPA to pass 6th grade and because I want my parents to be happy. I’m going to accomplish this goal by completing all my schoolwork and homework, having an A for over all grades, and reading books to study. Having the academic goals I’ve shared with you will be tough. But I know I could reach them.
