Dear Reader,
Do you want to excel in community college? If so, read this article, which tells you five steps you can take, starting today.
We’re heading into a new year when many people make resolutions they want to commit to. I’ve never made New Year’s resolutions myself, but for years, I’ve set goals to keep me on track toward what I hope to accomplish. Goal setting has been a way for me to organize my thoughts and actions around the things I want to achieve and to keep myself accountable to my own priorities.
When I became a community college student in 2012, goal setting was even more important for me because all of sudden I had to learn to adapt to this new world of higher education. The five steps that I discuss in this article helped me get the most out of my learning in community college, to graduate within a reasonable amount of time, and to transfer to a university.
