Motivation to Further Your Education
It is time for my life to change by taking the opportunity to go back to school for my children, a change in my career and finally my dream job. When I was in High School I did not realize how important it was to go straight to college. It wasn’t until I had children of my own to make me face reality. At my current employment industry, higher positions unavailable. What point do you finally reach until you are ready to make a change?
My kids are my biggest motivation. I found out I was pregnant with my first born Son at the age of 16. Still in high school, I was very nervous. It was my mission to stay in school and graduate. I accomplished getting my high school diploma as planned. My son was at my graduation and I held him the entire ceremony. Shortly after that, I became a single mother. Lter on down the road, I got remarried and had two beautiful daughters that were 22 months apart. As a young mother of three, I never wanted my kids to tell me that they did not accomplish something because it is too difficult. I feel it is necessary to be a good role model. Now my son is 16, and currently a sophomore in high school and my two daughters are ages 11 and 13. For my son, I would like to show him how important it is to go to college and get the highest education possible to better his future. As for my daughters, I want them to have independence. Hopefully after my three children watch me succeed and it will set a good example for them.
Being unable to receive an opportunity for advancement at my current employment industry is very discouraging. Many of my coworkers have been employed there for many years and I realized that is not a lifetime career for me. I did not want to see myself in that position in the future. In today’s economy it is very important to get your college degree to make a decent salary.
