Potential Obstacles/Challenges: What barriers might you need to overcome to achieve your goal? What challenges do you anticipate? I need to adjust and stay focused on the timeframes. I often get caught up in one task, overthink it, and spend too much time on one project.

Key Supporters: Identify 1–2 individuals who can check in with you, provide feedback, and act as trusted supporters. Explain how these supporters will help you meet your goal. Supporter 1: My husband is my main supporter, consistently encouraging me to excel and celebrating my achievements with enthusiasm. Supporter 2: My children are also significant supporters, motivating me to do better and standing by me throughout the process.

These can be previously identified goals or new ones. How will your personal development of employability skills impact these larger goals?

Beyond professional growth, earning my degree will fulfill my dream of financial independence.
