Goals

GOALS
Short term
Develop better stress management and time management skills.
Determine clear cut plan for career: teaching, school counselor, respiratory therapist
Develop school habits and continue to work on getting degree with improved GPA.

Mid-term
Improve my family unity between mine and my husband’s children from different marriages
I will do more family events or vacations when we have the opportunity to have all 6 children in our home at one. Create more opportunities to be equal and showing the children that everyone is treated equally and that there are no double standards. Be sealed in the temple to Justin and set an example for the kids.
Complete my educational goals. Teaching certificate, possibly degree in school counseling.
I will meet with a counselor to talk about options for a teaching certificate and what is needed. I am teaching at ALA again this year and have enjoyed working with the kids. I am interested in possible going into school counseling to help kids deal with the challenges that they face at this stage of life. I am a giving person and feel that I could be of great assistance to some of these kids.
Continue with my teaching career at American Leadership Academy. Network to gain opportunities to move into school counseling and teaching setting. Continue with my goals of becoming a respiratory therapist for a more flexible schedule.
I have been told if I get my teaching certificate that the school will keep me employed. I am interested in possibly going into school counseling after a class I took in social work this summer. I want to network and try to gain some experience to help me determine if it is a good idea to put off the respiratory therapist career for a year to have a back up career as well.
