One goal that I have set for myself is that one day I want to get accepted into medical school. I will achieve this goal by working hard and making some sacrifices to things that I might value because I am working and striving towards my goal. I will work hard everyday to achieve my goal by getting good grades all of my life. All of these challenges will make me more intelligent each day. You need to know what is important and what you value when you want to be successful. Success to me is knowing that I am getting closer to my goal of being a surgeon. I might reach my goal, but I also may not. That is okay because I know that I worked my hardest and at least tried. I will try and make sure that I take time away from trying to reach my goals and focus on what I value. For example, one thing that I value a lot is my family. I do not want to move far away from my family because of work. If I must move away from my job, then that might not be the job for me. I hope that I don’t have to move far away so that I can have the job that I want and still have my family close. If you keep your values and goals in mind, then you can achieve your
