Personal Goals

In life, the best thing to do is to set goals for the future. Setting goal is a vital component

to succeed in life. My goals are my motivation and always reminding myself to work harder to

achieve them. Also, my goals keep me focused and increase my confidence to go higher in life.

Short Term

Within one year, my goal is to be working on a critical care unit as a registered nurse

(RN) which will give me the experience required to get a higher degree in nursing and to

provide care for diverse populations.

Within two years, I am going to attain my critical care certification as an RN, which will

allow me to work as a preceptor to help other nursing students and provide more efficient

care to my patients.

Long Term

Within four years, I am going to be applying for my Doctor of Nursing Practice

(DNP) with specialization in nurse anesthesia. It will allow me to take care of patients

before, during, and after surgical procedures.

Within seven years, I will be working in the operating room (OR) as a Certified

Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA), which will allow me to continuously monitor

every body function during surgical procedures to provide safety and comfort.
