Swish! I tied the game with just on point to be ahead, I take my second foul shot. It sinks in and my team is ahead by one point, with only a few seconds left. The opposite team drives down the court, shoots, and misses! We win! That us what I hope it will be like in10 years for me if I make it in the NBA. When you were 11, did you ever set a goal for something like that to happen to you? Like when you’re on a little league team and you just came home from practice or a game, and you sit on your couch watching that same sport and something spectacular happens, and you hope someday that would be you?

A person should have personal goals so that when you’re not working hard academically, you are personally. My first goal is to play in the NBA. I want to accomplish this goal because I would get paid for playing the sport I love. To accomplish this goal, I would I have to have good grades. Secondly, I want to win the playoffs in my basketball league. Last year we got so close so this year I really want to win. By practicing hard this goal can be accomplished. I have a lot of work ahead of me but I plan to accomplish my personal goals.

In addition to personal goals I also have academic goals. My first academic goal is that I want to go to UCLA. Accomplishing this goal would be great because it is a great collage and I’ve always wanted to play on their basketball team. If I stay in school, I can accomplish this goal. Another goal is that I won’t do weekend homework at the last minute. I want to accomplish this goal because I wouldn’t be so stressed and panic. I will have to finish it the first day I get it to accomplish this goal. Having academic goals can have a big impact in your future.

Goals are important because they can help you in your future. My personal goals are to play in the NBA and win the playoffs in my basketball league. My academic goals are to go to UCLA and not to do my homework at the last minute. Like the basket helped win in the game, goals will help win in life.
