My life has been an adventure with many challenging obstacles. I had dedicated my life to achieving my goals. My lifelong goal has always been to become extremely successful, make a lot of money, and help save lives. After years of consideration, I decided that I want to become a pharmacist. I knew from the start that this would be a challenging task.

First, I had to complete high school with amazing grades to be able to get into any college I wanted. That is exactly what I did, I applied myself throughout high school and achieved the goals I set for myself. I graduated in the top ten of my class and got into every college that I applied to. One thing I regret is not trying my hardest. I just breezed through high school, not applying my full effort, and still achieved the major accomplishment of getting top ten. I know that if I put my full effort into making amazing grades in high school, I could have been salutatorian or valedictorian. This experience has made me realize that I should put my full effort into everything I do.

Next, I will have to graduate college. This is going to be the hardest task by far, with many obstacles. I will have to complete many rigorous courses and exams, while being detached from my family. One of the hardest obstacles has been integrating back into my college life after being lazy over the breaks. Although my goals may be hard to achieve, I know that if I apply my full effort, I can achieve anything I put my mind to. I tell myself every day, if it were easy, everyone would do it.
