Looking back at the past eleven weeks I have grown and learned so much here at Ashford University. I never thought that I would actually accomplish my educational dreams and be successful in my life, but I definitely have proved, myself wrong. I love knowing that I am doing great and I really try to do my best in completing my homework on time, with the occasions of a few speed bumps along the way.
I decided to return to school to further my education for many important reasons. I have struggled tremendously in the past with my five children and I wanted to change that life style for good. I am so very tired of trying to make ends meet and not being able to provide for my children like I want to. I have always been a strong, but big hearted person. I know that this decision on returning to school to complete my educational goals is one of the best choices I have made in my life and will benefit me and my family in the long run.
Some of the most important benefits I will receive when I accomplish my education and get my degree in business to work in the medical field, is helping other people who are in need. I have always been a kind and helpful person all my life and I knew when I grew up I was going to become someone successful in the medical field. Another great benefit of getting my degree is the income. I will be making a lot more money for my children. I will be better off financially. I know it will take a lot of hard work to become successful in my career and I will experience many different things and changes in my life style as well.

Having to adjust to a new environment and to have homework again after many years off I had to manage my time more careful and more wisely. I also, had to make a schedule and that fit in perfect with not only my life but
