YOUR PERSONAL MISSION STATEMENT: YOU’RE NEVER TOO YOUNG TO

CLARIFY YOUR LIFE GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

What’s your life mission? It’s not an easy question to answer, but an important one.
You can talk about your aspirations and goals all day, but when you write them down,
they become, well, more real. It’s a starting point to living the life you want. When you
write a personal mission statement, you’re clarifying what you want to accomplish and
how, committing to it. Businesses and nonprofit organizations develop mission statements
for the same reason.

What is a personal mission statement?

A personal mission statement defines who you are as a person and identifies your
purpose, whether that's in the school (for students) or simply in life. It explains how you
aim to pursue that purpose, and why it matters so much to you.
Most students, and adults, don’t realize the importance of writing their personal
mission statements. It’s more than just your goals. Your mission statement will help you
sort out your priorities and how you want to live your life. It may include short-term and
long-term goals, or life-long aspirations. It becomes a guide and provides direction, which
comes from you, not someone else. There’s no right or wrong way to approach your
personal mission statement, or what it should include. Everyone’s is going to be different.
What’s important is to write it down. Topics your personal mission statement may include:
• Education
• Career
• Personal attributes, such as honesty, loyalty and dedication
• Family and personal relationships
• How you want to live your life
• Sports
• Faith and spirituality
• Community service

Sample Personal Mission Statements:

• Benjamin Franklin opted for a list of concepts and then wrote his thoughts about
each to form his mission statement. “Temperance: Eat not to dullness; drink not to
elevation. Silence: Speak not but what may benefit others or yourself; avoid trifling
conversation. Order: Let all your things have their places; let each part of your
business have its time. Resolution: Resolve to perform what you ought; perform
without fail what you resolve...”

• Gandhi wrote his mission statement using active phrases such as “I will” or “I
shall. “...I shall not bear ill will toward anyone. I shall not submit to injustice from
anyone. I shall conquer untruth by truth...”

Practice Exercises/Activity
Activity No. 2: Personal Development: Hindsight and Foresight
Direction: In a short bond paper, write an essay on your journey through this course on
Personal Development. Your essay must 3-5 paragraph that would answer the following
questions.
 How have you changed since the beginning of this semester?
 What have you learned about yourself?
 What activities and reading were most useful to you?
 What can you do in order to continue your personal development after this course?

It’s important because it helps you focus on how to meet your long-term goals. It
serves as a guidepost for where you want to go in life. The cost of writing a mission
statement is small, but the payoff is huge because—simply put—it works!
That’s because a personal mission statement keeps you from wandering off track.
For example, if a decision you plan to make doesn’t fit within the confines of your personal
mission statement, you shouldn’t follow through with it. Something may be a cool idea,
but that doesn’t mean you need to bring it into your life.
A good mission statement becomes an out-of-bounds marker for your ideas. If your
passion is being outdoors, is it really wise to hole yourself up in a room your entire life?
Be realistic, and don’t set yourself up for failure.
People fail at what they hope to achieve because they lack clear goals and focus.
They run down too many rabbit trails and lose sight of who they were made to be. In other
words, they ignore their personal mission statement. But a successful person will have a
rock-solid vision spelled out in their personal mission statement.
Crafting a personal mission statement will serve you well in life. Everyone should
have one! If you don’t already have a personal mission statement, there’s no time like the
present to write one.
