Orie, You have great goals and i like your mission statement! One thing I would recommend is put a year on your your long-term goals, like, when do you think you want to actually be teaching? Also, what do you mean by "getting good grades?" As and Bs? (Good grades mean different thing for different people) :) Great job though! I hope you meet all your goals!!!
Hello Orie,
I like how you have been very specific in setting your short term goals. Setting a few more long term goals may help you to visualize a path toward your future, as well as maintaining the great focus you have on your present. Good job and I wish you the best in meeting your goals!

I love the mission statement. I wish I would have thought of it first :) I agree with Lasa, more long term goals the better I think. Those would be some darn good track goals, I know you can do it. Just keep puttin' it to the grindstone and all your hard work will pay off! What are your 100m and 200m goal times this spring?
Thanks everyone, I will think about some dates and be more specific for my long term goals!
Stay true to yourself, I wish I had thought about adding something like that into my statement. I do agree that there should be a bit more of a timeline for your long term goals as well.
