My Aim in life

My Aim in Life

Introduction : 'An aim' means a particular goal of life. Success in life depends largely on the right selection of an aim in life. Everyone should choose it wisely and carefully.

My aim : I am now in class VIII. I hope to take up Science Group when I am promoted to class IX. Study of Science upto the Intermediate stage is necessary to study medicine. From my childhood, I have wished to be a doctor. So I shall take up science in the S.S.C. and H.S.C. classes. After passing these examinations I shall get myself admitted in a Medical College for the MBBS course. I know that this is a difficult study. I shall have to work very hard for five years.

Choice of profession : I always wanted to take up an independent profession. I consider that the medical profession is the best. I shall never take up any job. This independent career will give me the best chance for serving the suffering people of my poor country.

Service to the people : I intend to begin my career as a doctor in my own village. I have seen how the village quacks extort money from the simple folks. So my first duty will be to put a stop to the fraud practised by the quacks. I shall then set up a charitable dispensary in my village. I shall give medical aid to the villagers free of charge. I shall, of course, take fees from the rich people. I shall set up a hospital with a few beds for emergency and serious cases.

Conclusion : I believe that in no other profession one can serve the people better than this. I hope my desire will be fulfilled and my attempts will be crowned with success.

My aim in life

My Aim In My Life Essay for 8th Class

Everyone has his/her own aim or desire and he/she want to archive his/her life goal in his/her life. Everyone who lives in this world always wants to do something which is called its ambition or aim of his/her life. I also have my own ambition in my life and I want to archive my life goal at any cost and I am doing my best to get my life goal.

If we look around us, we will see that there are several professions in this world. Someone wants to become engineer and someone wants to become doctor. If someone wants to become lawyer then other one want to have his/her own business. However everyone must have his/her own aim in his/her life.

Where is the question of my life goal so I want to become a teacher and I like this profession too much. If I want to become a teacher then it does not mean that I don’t like other professions although each profession has its own importance but there are several points which make my mind that I should be a teacher.

First of all teaching is one of the most respectable professions and everyone must respect his/her teacher. It is the biggest fact that no one is superior to a teacher because a teacher is the person who produces several doctors, engineers or businessman by providing them best education. If a teacher will teach his students in good way then the whole credit of his student achievement will go to his/her teacher.

Now here is another point that is I just want to serve my country which is much possible if I will be a teacher. If I will become a teacher, I will provide free education to the students of mu country. Today, our country literacy rate is too much low so I just want to put my country on the road or progress and it will happen when I will provide education to the students of my country. I hope one day I will be a good teacher and I will teach students on the same way where my teachers teach me.
