Topic 2: Planning For Immediate and Long Term Success

Task Two: Where do you want to be in ten years? What can you do now to get there? Visualize what you want your life to be like in ten years. What do you look like? What are you doing? Where are you living? What kind of job do you have? Are you sharing your life with a partner? Have you started a family? etc.

In ten years:

I want to have a great job working as a pastry chef.

Maybe living in Boston or just here in Athens.

Having my own house with my daughter.

Be able to spend time with her and work at the same time. Being able to balance those 2.

Able to give anything my daughter needs.

Iliana would be going to school already probably in 5th grade.

Have a car to go to work and take my daughter to school.

What I can do to get there:

Is finish my 3 classes with an A.

Applying for colleges.

Get a temporary job 'til I graduate college, and then get a better job.

Start saving money for my house and car.

Check the places in Boston and here in Athens to see where it would be better to live for me and my daughter.

Task Three: I have had a great experience so far in Five And Ten. They teach me a lot of things there. I have done many pastries on my own now, and it went well with their help. I haven't messed up any pastries yet. And hopefully I never do because then it would take time to do it over again. But I'm very happy where I'm working right now. Everyone there is very polite to me and teaches me things, and they correct me when I'm doing things wrong which I'm thankful for because thats how I learn more everyday. So my experience in Five and Ten is going very good so far.
