My Goal by James Mc

James Mc
One important goal I would like to achieve in the next few years is to earn my diploma. I think I could do it because I am a smart young man that tries hard on everything. I also have a lot of people supporting me, especially my mother. She has always told that I can accomplish anything that I set my mind to, as long as I put my heart into it. I have two brothers that both died before they could finish school. They also wanted me to finish my education. I plan on working as hard as I can to complete this goal not only for myself, but also for my mother and my brothers.
I don’t really have the necessary credits to graduate, so I’m in a GED class. I have a long way to go to finish my GED, but I am working hard and everyone tells me that I have a good head on my shoulders. After I complete my GED I plan to enroll in a community college near my home in California. This would make my family very happy.
Aside from wanting to please my family, I have come to realize how important an education is to leading a successful life. In today’s world it is very difficult to get and keep a good paying job without a good education. Someday I want to have a family of my own. To do this, I will need a good education so I can get a good job to support them and even provide them with more than I had when I was growing up.
I can’t wait till I complete my GED and start a new life. I know it will not be easy. I know that I will need help and support from the education staff and my family. This short term goal will lead to accomplishing the long term goals I have set for my life. Most importantly I know that I have the will, and I can do it.
