"The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." — Lao Tzu

Short-term goals
Personal:
My goal is to burn 20000 calories in 9round by December of 2024. I will do this by going to 9round sessions three times a week and doing intense exercises there for 30 minutes. I hope to burn 400 calories every session, which will absolutely aid in reaching the 20000 calories mark by the end of the year.
Another goal is for me to reduce my screen time every day to 4 hours or under by December of 2024. I will do this by finding other activities to do and by volunteering more in my community. I may achieve this goal naturally, however, being that my schedule is becoming busier every week.
Professional:
Although this goal is less formal than most, this goal centers around me taking a strong leadership position in the NSLS by the end of the year, which is December 2024. I will do this by working and volunteering more closely with the NSLS and my fellow NSLS executive board members.
Another goal is to find volunteer opportunities outside of school and the NSLS, and I hope to try and volunteer at least once before the year closes, that is, by December of 2024. I will have to search for volunteer opportunities and apply to be a part-time volunteer in a shelter or other place.
Academic:
My first goal is to finish the 2024 term with A’s in all my classes through hard work, studying, and tutors if necessary. I will do this by contacting my professors if I have questions, completing my work in a timely manner, and getting help from the academic support center and tutors if necessary.
My other goal is to raise my overall GPA to a 4.0 by the end of the term, which is December 15, 2024. I will do this by achieving an A for all of my classes through tutoring, completing assignments in a timely manner, and asking my professors when I have questions.

Long-Term Goals
Personal: My goal is to keep my weight and blood pressure within healthy thresholds for the next 5 years, which will mean until 2029. I will do this by going to 9round as long as needed, and I will need to watch what I consume and the activities I do daily. Another goal is for me to expand my comfort zone and try challenging tasks. I hope to have expanded my comfort zone significantly by the time of my graduation, which is May of 2025. I will do this by volunteering more in the NSLS and seeing what needs to be done in my community.
Professional: My goal is to get a job related to service in 5 years, which will be in the year 2029. I will do this by earning a degree related to Social Services or majoring in something similar. Another goal of mine is to begin venturing into jobs when I am in college, which will be achieved by August 2025.
Academic: My goal is to graduate high school and SPCC by May of 2025. I will do this by reaching the threshold needed to graduate by passing all my classes and earning credits from the classes. My other goal is to get into Wingate University by August of 2025. I will achieve this by making sure I have all the qualifications they are searching for, which includes extensive interaction in my community, excellent ACT and SAT scores, and job experience.
