Why Am I Returning To School
Why I am returning to school

Returning to school was a truly hard, scary, and exciting decision for me to make. Everything in my life had to be considered including my children, husband, work, and all my other obligations. With returning to school I am hoping to improve myself on a personal and work level. So I am returning to school because I already do the job but currently not being paid for it without a degree. I have been doing accounting work for about seven years now and I don’t get the accounting pay because I don’t have a degree. Some companies do not look at experience in the job field and only pay attention to what degrees employees have or are getting. This is why I decided to return to school

I wanted to get out of my dead end job. I am now ready to take this important step in my life. I knew it would help me to grow as a person. Most of all I want to better me as a person.

    After careful thought and consideration, I made the desire to return to school into a realistic goal. I had finally come to the conclusion, that it was time to take control of my circumstances, rather than continue to let my circumstances control me.

Being turned down for a promotion gave me the motivation I needed. There are obstacles and lifestyle changes for anyone returning to school.
