an individual’s reputation in society. It further helps to develop personality of an individual
l(Winkler, Söllner and Leimeister, 2021). Whereas professional development covers
enhancement of those skills which are essential to develop in career life like management skill

these skills as they helps in overall development of life which further helps to develop better life
standards.
Short term goals
These goals are those goals which are required to achieve within one year because of its
priority (Losekoot and et. al., 2018). My few short term goals are-
 To learn communication skill.
 To leave junk food.
 To attend all classes within a semester.
Medium term goals
These goals are required to achieve within 2-3 years. Few of my goals in this category are-
 To complete my graduation with minimum 75% marks.
 To apply for internship opportunities which is offered by college.
