Example of my other paper
Four years from now I envision myself as a Nurse Practitioner with a specialty in Community Healthcare. As I embark on my journey to achieve my long term goal in becoming a leader in my profession and an advocate in my community I must fine tune my short term goals. My short term goals are to complete all my courses to complete my ADN to BSN, then I will work on completing my BSN to MSN, finally I will work on completing my licensure and certifications for Community Health ARNP. I understand my journey in nursing will take time, dedication, and take hard work to reach my final goal, but I love being a nurse and being passionate is where my motivation to start my journey begins. After I reach my long term goal, who knows I might just set on another journey to achieve my DNP. I would be able to also continue working in the management sector and continue making the impact on a population as a whole than one person at a time. I feel that working as an RN in the community I am gathering knowledge, hands on experience, networking and building a foundation for my career in the long run.
