    Earn an 80% in advanced functions
    In grade 12, I would like to earn an 80% average in advanced functions. I would like to obtain this mark the first time I complete the course, so I do not have to enrol myself in a night or summer school program. In order to earn this mark, I will work hard, do all my homework, seek out extra help when I do not understand a concept, and stay positive and motivated throughout the semester.

    While at Western, I would like to earn a bachelor degree in biology by the year 2022. I will earn this by working hard and applying myself to the course and work at hand. I would like to have accomplished this, as it will help me get into a dermatologist work position, and that will serve as my motivation to complete this course successfully.
  • Marriage

    Marriage
    In the year 2026 I would like to get married to someone who I can enjoy my life with, love and care about. I would like to have been with this person for a couple of years prior to marriage, to ensure that we will be compatible, and be able to work through problems and conflicts together.
  • Period: to

    Children

    After my marriage, I would like to have 3 healthy children. I would like to have these children all 2 years apart, in the years 2028, 2030, and 2032 because those are the age gaps my siblings and I have, and I’ve seen those age gaps work really well for a family of 5. I aim to raise my children so that they are respectful of each other, and I hope my family will spend a lot of quality time together so my kids will always be there for each other and have a life long bond.
  • Period: to

    Supporting my family

    I strive to be able to help support my family, so that my family and I can lead a comfortable and enjoyable lifestyle. I would like my children to have the opportunity to be involved in activities they want to participate in, and go on family trips we can all enjoy. I also aim to be able to help support my parents when they are retired, in ways such as helping to pay for their rent in a retirement home, and driving them places when they feel too old to drive.
  • Period: to

    Maintain a happy and healthy home

    I would like to be able to maintain a happy and healthy home environment for my family to come home to everyday. I will do this by trying to keep a clean environment with limited clutter and messes, and by having everything in a place so it’s easy to find.
  • Become a dermatologist

    Become a dermatologist
    My goal is to be a dermatologist by the time I am 30. I would like to care for people, and help people improve themselves and their skin health. I will reach this by completing and applying myself to medical school and then specializing in dermatology, and hopefully obtain this career until I am ready for retirement.
  • Period: to

    Be financially stable

    Later on in life, I aim to have a job that will make me financially secure and stable. My goal would be to lead a happy and comfortable lifestyle so that I can buy life necessities (food, shelter, clothing) and still have money to do what I enjoy in life such as travel. I also want to be financially able to support my children in leisure activities they want to take part in, and later on help them pay for schooling and fulfilling some of their needs and wants.
  • Period: to

    Enjoy work

    I aim to enjoy my career path, and look forward to going to work every day. I plan to achieve this by keeping up with my work load to limit stress, maintaining a good relationship with my coworkers, and by finding the good in the tasks at hand.
  • Period: to

    Have a good relationship with my clients

    If I reach my goal of being a dermatologist, I will strive to have a good relationship with my clients. This is important to me because I would want to ensure they feel comfortable and always in good hands. I will obtain this goal by always trying my best, so they feel cared for and by being responsible and honest with them in any given situation.
  • Own a private clinic

    Own a private clinic
    Assuming I reach my goal of being a dermatologist, I would like to run my own private clinic by the time I am 40. This would benefit me because I would be making more profits, I would have more control, and I would probably have more of my own patients.
