My Goals

“The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically...that is the goal of true education.” (Martin Luther King) By joining, the national honor society it challenges me to think critically as well as intensively in order to better my education. The national honor society has a major imprint on my education because it can influence my long term goals. By allowing the national honor society to educate me further I will be able to inspire myself. I am making it my mission to join the national honor society by fall semester of 2012. I am determined to join, the Honor Society in order to, challenge myself while inspiring myself. I look at other people for inspiration all the time, now I just want to be my own inspiration. I want to see myself as a role model and I believe the honor society will help me to do that. To be accepted into this organization has a dominant significance because it can open a lot of doors in my career. If I was to join the national honor society I would be able to receive scholarships and easily transfer. To be able to transfer without any problems is a great deal because the grades are the last thing you want to worry about once you decide on a school. Being on the honor society you will not have to worry grades and this more of a reason I want to join the national honor society. To aim for this goal of joining the national honor society my first semester in college is a big deal being that it’s a lot of challenges. Academics will be my main challenge getting into the national honor society. I feel the biggest academic challenge I will face are exams. Exams have always been my downfall and I believe it’s because I am not able to control my anxiety. The national honor society will boost my confidence in a way were my anxiety will not bother me at all. On another not, I know I cannot just walk into the national honor society I have to meet the requirements. I did some research and found out you need to have a 3.0, in order to join, the national honor society. Knowing that I would need a 3.0 to join the national honor society I set my goal of having a 3.7. I set myself at such a high goal so, I know I am definitely meeting the qualification of the honor society as well as challenging myself. My only solution of getting into the national honor society is by excelling in all my classes and asking questions. My plan to getting into the national honor society is by excelling. I will excel by writing 100 to 200 more words above the requirement. Participation will become added onto my list of main focuses. By getting into this honorable club I can achieve my personal goal of inspiring myself and main goal of joining by fall semester of 2012. However, I know I will have challenges and I am mentally prepared. To get into the Honor Society will be a difficult task but, I am looking forward to the challenge. I know to get into the National Honor Society I need to have substantial grades. Although, I did not do so well on my first exam I will try no to let it discourage me from reaching my goal.
