Goals Essay

In your life you must set short-range as well as long-range goals for yourself. The reason for setting goals is to make sure that you don't fall behind in life and you achieve your dreams. I have set goals for myself and have taken steps in achieving them. My short-range goals are as follows:

 Graduating from high school with honors,

I have tried to make sure that I get all the information that I need to choose the right college for me. My plans for buying a car have changed since others cost for school and more important things have come about, but I do plan to purse that goal at another time.

The long-range goals that I've set for myself are just as important as my short-range goals and they are as follows:

 Graduate from college with honors
 Become very successful in a marketing career dealing with fashion, and
 Buy a house

As time goes on I continue to set goals for myself. I don't plan to give up on my goals any time soon because that would be considered
