I want to become someone who chases their goals right from the start and doesn’t stop until they get it. My ‘I am’ statement established that I am someone who chases their goals, but when all of my goals have deadlines, I tend to wait until the last minute or until I’m told to do so. I want to become someone who gets it done right away. I don’t want to have to rely on the people around me to succeed. In my ‘I am’ statement I used the people around me for a reason that I succeed, but I want to become someone who can succeed all by themselves. I want to be able to figure out my life without needing anyone else's help. I have spent a lot of time lately thinking about how I should be more of an individual rather than guided by the people around me. I think a huge step for me was changing my major recently. No one told me to do it, but I decided that it was the best decision for me. Going into a new major with all new classes and all new people will help be address my goal of being more of an individual. Obviously I still want to meet new faces and friends, but they won’t guide my path for me. That’s my job. I used to always be scared of college because I knew I’d have to make my own decisions, but the days of my life being planned out for me are over. I want to become someone whose life is their own.
