Kalamazoo Community College Analysis

I made the right choice to attend in Kalamazoo Community College because even that I’m new in college and I still don’t know a lot about what college is about, what benefits I might obtain through my college life or how is college system. Going to college is a very essential step in my life. I’ve always said that education is very important. I have to confess, that KVCC is not my dream college, because it is not a 4 year college. I do want to get my bachelor degree to do so I need to transfer to any university, if my economic resources help me into this process I might attend to Western Michigan University (my college dream). Unfortunately I do not have the Kalamazoo Promise to attend to WMU right away, that’s why I chose KVCC as my 2 year
college. I have only three weeks attending to KVCC and I am enjoying myself in all my classes. I do like the environment. I also chose KVCC because I can afford it. I still planning to attend to WMU within two years and get a bachelor degree.
I do think that getting a College degree helps you more than a Specialized training.
It helps you a lot about getting jobs opportunities and a good charge in any area of a job. College is important because it helps you to develop your knowledge, skills, it teaches you how to express your thoughts/ideas in the correctly way. As a matter of fact, college is a great benefice in the society. For example; if I graduated from college, I can help my community/neighborhood to develop more, showing them what college have taught me, so I wouldn’t be only helping the society to improve, I’d also be helping myself even more expressing my knowledge and skills when helping the
community.
My motivation when attending college is to be successful in the future, to learn more and develop my knowledge. Education is a need to me. That is to say, education have always been around us. Even for those who can’t afford college/school. They’ve learned through life, because life is about learn, as well as education is about the same. My attitude towards college is really positive. I am honest when I said education is an essential key in my life. I really enjoy learning, even when I don’t like the subject. My current commitment in college is to never give up.
Grit is important quality that every student should have. Grit is a passion of success. Growth Mindset is the belief that the ability to learn is not fixed and it can change with your efforts. Grit is when you work hard until you get your results. I don’t really think I have Grit because I’ve lost a lot of things because of laziness. When I was in middle school I was kind of a perfectionist student. I’ve cried when I got B’s. I wanted an A instead, because I knew I could get it. After I’ve grown up, that perfectionist student was kind of leaving me.
Setting goals is important because it helps you to organize your ideas on what you want in life.
The SMART goals are pretty helpful when planning goals. It’s about how specific your goals need to be, because you need to know what you really want and when, it also talks about your goals need to be measurable, attainable, that is to say you need to make sure your goals are achievable, you have to be sure on what you really want, you have to feel confident on what you choose. Time is also important when setting goals. You do not have to rush yourself. Your goals need to be relevant, but if you rush yourself you’ll set them wrong. S/S #1 A and B helped me on how to organize my time. I might use this strategy to be more organize in my classes and to have a balance of
time.
To conclude, education is the path of success. College is a raim in the education, that will help me to improve myself. I know that I will do and give the best of me to accomplish my goals and graduate. To ensure that I’ll stay in the right path i’ll work hard, be active on all my classes and manage my time within class, work and personal life.
