Long-term and short-term goals

When a person possesses a set of long-term goals based on values and principles, short-term objectives logically flow in that order. In the short-run, transferring to a prestigious institution of higher learning is an objective; a successful, productive career in business and management is a long-run goal. Together, these goals and objectives are mutually supportive and follow logically from each other. I recognized this years ago as a child watching my father apply his own knowledge of management principles to his work life in the plastics industry. Moved in part by his success, and in part by my own desire for a thriving career, I have chosen to continue my postsecondary education.
So far, my learning experience in college has been formative and inspiring: stimulating enough to make me refocus my attention on a broader view of the world that only a four-year college can provide. Consistent with what I feel to be a fact about my life so far, I am not satisfied with reaching the minimum standard of performance and instead, I am driven to achieve all that I am capable of achieving. As I have learned in many years of playing golf, success requires practice and, when the time comes, an ability to perform at the top of one’s game. I am also aware that college prepares individual people (through practice) for performing well in their daily personal and professional lives. Fundamentally, this is my reason for transferring.
With the idea that practice is essential to excellence, I hope to continue refining my skills as a business manager so that I can add value to a company, alongside my father either in his business or by tapping into my own entrepreneurial spirit to start my own venture. In addition, I hope to affect my college community in terms of creating opportunities for engagement for my fellow students, which has always been a passion of mine. Bringing out excellence both in myself and others is a skill I wish to refine in my classes and extracurricular activities within this new educational setting. Fundamentally, these are the objectives I hope to achieve.
