I would like to earn my GED® now to get a start on my future. Getting that start on my future is important because I would like to have a career for myself.
My career choice is to take a role in the medical field working with the elderly. Taking care of the elderly usually requires medical training. In order for me to take the appropriate classes I would need a GED®. I think it would feel amazing to make it into the career of my choice.
Another reason I would like to earn my GED® is for my child. When my daughter grows up I want her to know that I did my best to provide for her, and to do that I need schooling to pursue a career. I really want to set a good example for her.
Finally, I want to get my GED® for myself. I have set personal goals in life and getting my GED® is one of them. It shows me that I don't need to hold back. I can get the confidence I need to accomplish other big goals in my life.
I would like to get my GED® now for these reasons. It will not only make my life better, but also my family's. I can't wait until I have achieved this goal!
