My 5 year plan is to be the best I can be and finish school off strong by practicing and meeting my goals. My goal is to be a veterinarian. Why? I want to be a veterinarian because I love animals and I grew up around different animals not just dogs. My uncle inspired me because he love animals and he use to teach me things about dogs snakes and etc. every since I was little he would take me to Petco or the reptile show. I just loved animals. My granny always took me to the shed aquarium and the zoo. My goal is to learn more about animals and etc so when I get to that field I will know exactly what I’m doing and not only that I will love doing it because I love animals. It’s just so interesting. My plan is to ask teachers or my counselor questions about vets or pet stores so I can at least work at the front desk and get the experience of something. I plan to ask who is hiring so at least I can be in the place working there so that I can be moved up to work with the animals.

My goals for this journey is to do what ever I can to get to where I want to be. My gpa for my freshman year was a 4.0. I plan on going to college and reading books about all kinds of animals and study them. My back up plan is to be a writer. I wrote about everything and I loved writing stories. I loved writing scary stories and reading them to people. My goal is to learn everything about writing such as my grammar and spelling. I would write my butt off but there is still more work to be done. How will I be successful? Well I will read books newspapers and go to khan academy for more practice with things. There’s plenty of resources to help me be successful with what I want to do I just have to reach out to these resources and use theses resources to make me better. Nothing is going to work on it’s own unless you get it working. I have to set goals for myself by reading a chapter book from beginning to the end and expand my vocabulary words.

To sum it all up, I really don’t dream. I just set goals for myself because I feel that a dream isn’t true. If I set goals I can accomplish them one by one and get to where I want to be. My goals will be set and completed and once I’m on top I’m not gone stop there I will keep going. My 5 year plan isn’t easy in fact nobody can just think this is easy. Nothing in life is easy. If you think what you do is easy then maybe you should go to the next level with you career and drive to be better because if you think what you do is easy then maybe your not working hard enough. I set my goals to finish college and be a veterinarian and I’m willing to do what ever it takes to get to my goal and remember I’m not just going to stop there I will keep going.

In 5 years I see myself starting my career as an entrepreneur. I say this because I want to be my own boss tell others what to do run my own show. Some people tell me that I won’t make but if I still follow my dream it will come true. However, I still have to put the work in if I want to be successful. But It’s a lot of stuff I would like to know about what field I would like to go in.

Game designing is what I would like to do because I like gaming. To create my own game will be fire because I can collaborate with other gamers that design games for more money. Also if you have a job u like it will fill like u not working it’s fun. Also it will be fun to run games meet new people and be helpful to others the need help designing gaming.

Overall, this reveals how I would want to see my self in 5 years. Also I know 3 people that raised over 1 million dollars. Therefore I’m taking the risk invest my money to to be successful at chasing my dream but. One person that inspires me to keep moving forward is Eric Thomas. My teachers showed me videos of him now I look up to him as a leader to keep me up with positivity.

My first goal is getting my life together. Yes I'm only 16 years old, but this is a need for me!! Everyday I do my devotion just to make sure I'm starting my day off right. I'm trying to take a lot of negative situation and find the good in them. I surround myself with happy people. Five years from now I hope that I see and others as well a major change in my character.

In five years I will be a senior in college! Preparing for medical school. I want to be a neurosurgeon. Being a doctor takes a lot of work. The best way to prepare for this obstacle is taking in what IMPACT enforces and teach and apply it to my life. Taking extra steps to make sure I know that I have my skills down take. Practice a good study habit.

I never thought about going into the media field, but working at IMPACT and taking classes for technology can possibly be a side job for me. Technology it not a easy skill to undertake, but I that I have all the support in my corner. Every semester we work with technology now its up to me to make sure I want this. I hope in the next five years i have clients pulling me left and right for new gigs!!

My 5 year plan is graduating college without debt. I will achieve this goal by choosing the right school, applying for scholarships and financial aid, and finding jobs. Starting from my junior year I will look into scholarships, keep my test scores and G.P.A high as they can be. Look on college green light, go to see how much financial aid will be at my choice of college. Find jobs that are hooked to paying my tuition. Once I graduate from college, I should be on track to being a wealthy entrepreneur of cosmetics products, ob-gyn, and stylist, while being a mother and wife. She is going to achieve this goal by staying in high school and continue getting top grade, with majoring in business and pre-med. If there is any unpaid fees left, I will handle them.

So you want to know my goals that I want to achieve? My goals and dreams I want to achieve are some very good goals and dreams. In fact these dreams will help me in the long run also help my family in the long run when I get older and I need to settle down. These dreams and goals can change my family’s lives forever and change how the world looks and different sexes. These goals could possibly change your family life for the good if you're reading this and could have the same goals and dreams.

One of my dreams that I want to really pass is making my mom happy and smile even when its bad and, be able to move her out of chicago and in a country that she wants to live in. I will be able to do this by going into my other dream is to become a NFL player and, getting the money to be able to do these things for my mom. I want to do this dream because my mom went through a lot when she was having me and taking care of me so, it's only right to repay her as much as I can. The NFL dream would lead me into so many different things that could help me and my family to be successful and make everyone happy and live the life that they deserve. I say this because with the football dream you will get people to help you with a lot of things.

Talking to people and people helping you let's talk about that. Talking to people would let me try to fix one of the biggest problems in the world today is sexism. I want to fix this problem because you would be surprised on how many women have been judged as they have to do this or you can't do this. This is a big problem to me because, how could you just tell someone that they can't do something or they shouldn't be doing something because of their sex? I think that is really wrong because there are women out in the world that could show up any man in any job they could choice to do. I see that is the man are just scared of what the women could do they are scared that the women could take their jobs and, I would try to stop this by making a march in the NFL dedicated to the women that is going through things because of sexism.

Those are my dreams and goals that I want to achieve.

My 5 year goal as of now is to finish up high school. I also plan to work on finding myself during the school year. Im thinking about doing various activities from different sites to explore my options. I would maybe take up a class in the arts. I plan to take at least two classes in dance and some kind of art( ei: painting, drawing...ex.). If any of those experiences peek my interest then I might go further and try to make a living out of something that I find interesting.

I wouldn’t only work in the arts. I would try to work in the side of media and technology that school doesn’t touch upon. Thats why organizations such as Impact exists to provide kids while information that most schools dont have the time or resources to teach. So I see myself working with the people at Impact throughout high school to that step ahead in life. I would be doing all of this while sustaining at least a 3.8 gpa in school of course.

As of right now I'm a senior and my plan is to accomplish everything i need to so i can graduate and get my diploma. I want to be able to also walk across the stage. My goal is to also succeed with applying myself when it comes to test that i need to prepare for. For the most part, I'll be searching for several scholarships that may interest me. When i go to college the plan is for me to major in Psychology and minor in Photography. And lastly, i want to travel all across the world and experience seeing many different places. There isn't really much more to say. This pretty much sums it up for what my 5 year plan is.

In five years, I plan to be at a well known university on a full ride scholarship. I am currently looking at multple reputable universities around the country. These include Stanford, University of Chicago, Penn State, U of I, and much more. I plan on going to these universities for four years with a major in either pre-law or industrial engineering. I hope to be a good student in one of these schools and to meet new people from different places.

In the course of five years, I also hope to have a summer internship with a law firm or a stem program. I hope to broaden my education in the STEM department because I feel that I am lacking in that area. I hope to have a better educational understanding of all of the fields that I’ve studied in. I struggle in science related things, so hopefully college will help me gain an understanding on some of the subjects that I’ve struggled with. Because freshman year of college is typically fundamental knowledge, I hope to refresh my knowledge. I also hope to increase my social skills.

In five years, I hope to be a more social person. As I have gotten older, I have become a bit more reserved and shy. I hope that in five years I can get back to where I was when I was younger and had less fears of social interaction. College is a place where you meet many different people. When you don’t knoe many people, you’re forced to get to know people. This forces me to be more open and social.

In the next five years, I plan to have competed high school with a 3.5+ GPA for my junior and senior year. My goal for the SAT is 1100 or higher, and I would like to get accepted to Alcorn State University or Clark Atlanta University. I’d like to graduate with at least 100 service learning hours and top 35% in the class. Consistently working is a must because I like having my own money. I want to save up to be able to pay for part of my own car. Once I get to college I’ll pledge as a Delta Sigma Theta as far as I know. I want to become a stylist or a cosmetic dermatologist/esthetician, so i’ll be trying to get a glimpse of what that is like with minor experiences.

Give back to those who are struggling and to get back on their feet.
Able to understand the perspective of how the kids see themselves when they get older.

My overall goal in life is to be able to live life the way I wish to. My goal is to find a job that I know I will enjoy because I want to get up everyday excited to go to work. I hope to be a movie producer. I want to be the one who writes the script, and I also want to edit. I enjoy making scripts and skits for people to act out. I have a vision of how I want my videos to look before I even start drafting. I enjoy coming up with ideas for skits, and learning more about the camera itself.
After my brother passed away, I went looking for memories I had left of him in my camera roll, and was hurt that I couldn't find nothing but one video of him. From that day, my dedication for cameras rised. I started from putting videos together into one on a app I installed on my phone to combining two after school matters pay checks to buy my own camera. In my mind, it was my job that every single moment is recorded, because no one is promised tomorrow. I am eager to find networks that help me get better at producing skits and short films. I want to be likre Tyler Perry, Gabrielle Union, ect.
I plan on accomplishing my goals by working harder at what I want to do now and stop taking advantage of the networks I have that is here to help me gain knowledge on what I want to do. I'm going to use my time more productively and I am going to stop wasting time. I am going to save up money to buy whatever it is I need to make skits.I am going to find mentors who can help me work in areas I may need help in because I am aware that you should surround yourself with people who have the same interests as you. I plan on continuing the process of writing short films and skits until I can find people who can act them out for me. I plan on not giving up on my dream as a producer, and do whatever it takes to get done what I need to get done.

After I graduate high school, I will continue to college and study architecture. To achieve this I will have to take programs to help better my application so I can get accepted in the first place. In four years I will get my Architect major which will qualify me to be an Architectural technologist. Architectural technicians/technologists work closely with architects and other building professionals, providing architectural design services and resources and solutions on construction project problems. They negotiate projects, assessing the needs of clients and users to make sure everyone agrees on the plans for the project. Gensler, Perkins + Will, AECOM are the 3 biggest firms. Salaries range from as low as $23,000 to over $130,000. I might move to a place with a lot more development and construction going on but to get my feet of the ground I have to stay in Chicago to accumulate enough money to move new cities, states or countries to open up more work opportunities.
