I briefly had a meeting with my co-chairs today to ask a question and got informed that it was time for me to establish my first dissertation committee meeting! I will be honest I was a little bit fearful but then I got excited — I am almost done with my coursework 🙂 Just one more semester and then I will be in the comprehensive exam phase…
So I naturally wanted to find a motivational image that highlights how we have to have a purpose and direction in order to reach our dreams. You can do all this work but without a desired end goal how do you know you are coming close? I mean at the end of each semester I mark my course requirements off my list so I knew it was there but after these past hectic weeks and the upcoming busy ones I semi forgot.
What are your thoughts? Do you have a purpose for your present life… do you know what steps are need to occur to reach that purpose? I know right now my purpose/direction is to earn this degree while also doing the best for my girls. I want to ensure that they have a quality life at the same time monitor me pushing for success (leaving my legacy).
