On a professional level, my goal is become very successful as a General Manager of a Major League Baseball team. College will help me achieve this goal by teaching me how to manage my time efficiently, carry a large work load, and work as hard as possible to accomplish whatever is asked of me.  Western Michigan University has the opportunities available for me to succeed.  By taking advantage of these opportunities, I will impress future employers by carrying a high grade point average and becoming actively involved as a leader on campus.  I have to take full advantage of every chance I get to learn.  By following the path set before me, I will become a very successful person in the near future. 

Personally, at Western Michigan University I will push myself to become more of a complete person.  I want to continue to learn how to balance my schoolwork with my social life.  I need to have time to grow both as a student and a person.  I have challenged myself to create a new network of friends while I spend the next 4 years of my life here.  I plan to lean on these friends down the road as we all enter into the working world.  Facing the next level of challenges after college will be much easier with many good people behind me, than if I were to take on the world alone.  Also, I want to raise my abilities to lead and have a strong voice.  I want to become very active in the University and make a name for myself.  I will cherish these four years and enjoy them to the fullest.
