One Minute Writer: Today's Writing Prompt: Three Goals

One Minute Writer: Today's Writing Prompt: Three Goals:
"Write about three realistic goals you'd like to achieve in your lifetime."

This is good question as it makes me think about what I really want to achieve in my life and evaluate my strenghts...

This is my 4th year in the UK and I have been trying to get a teaching job. I would love to teach History and RS - my specialist subjects in some secondary school here in the UK. So far without any success. I am actually failing to get to interview, which means, I am doing something wrong, or there is something missing in my experience...

So my first goal is a professional one - Teaching Job. In short term it means to get a placement at the Uni and improve my English and maybe start doing some extracurricular activity at my school (Yes, I work at school, but not as a Teacher)

Second goal is related to my material/financial situation. I have always wanted to have a property back in my homeland, in Slovakia. A little flat or house with small garden near some national park or reserve, so I can spent my holidays walking, trekking or cycling there... I need to earn a bit more money to afford this. And (out of my reach) pound need to stop falling!!! When I came to the UK ratio Pound:SKK was 1:50, now it is 1:38/36.

Third goal: personal life... hm. This is really interesting, because this should really be on the first place, but it isn't... so I understand now a little better, why it is in such a mess. Obviously my professional life is more important now and I can just hope, that I am not making a mistake... this makes me think. Thanks for this writing prompt, this got me really thinking now
