Personal Goals Paper

My personal goals I want to achieve at the University of Phoenix are to attend every class, work hard throughout the week to complete all tasks the best I can, and get good grades on everything I turn in. I also want to be able to balance Life Issues like, work and routine tasks that need to be completed day-to-day. I believe that the fact that class is only once a week, and is in the evening I will be able to attend every class.

When I first went to College, I had a hard time adjusting to the schedule of having class 5 days/week sometimes 3 classes each day.
