“To educate a man in mind and not in morals is to educate a menace to society.” Theodore Roosevelt spoke those words of truth and ringing veracity, and I believe them to remain as honest today as when first spoken. Because of the inspiration from this quote, I have dedicated my life to maintaining a moral character in my chosen profession.
	To all those surrounded by me, I hope to be an example of upright ethics. Being a good example requires more then and transcends a mere job; it is about a life style choice that must saturate every minuscule part of a person’s life. For a lesson well learned is that every moment is being watched by someone and everything comes to light sooner or later, so all must be in perfect order.
	No matter where my life’s path may lead me, my plans are to become a pillar of the community. Joining committees, helping others, and volunteering are the means by which I will achieve this goal. This is an important part of any employment because a business needs to have ties with the surrounding people, and I believe I can do this.
	While upholding a righteous life in my community, I will strive to achieve a leadership position. A proclivity towards leading others is a trait that I have always held, and I hope to perfect it with first hand experience. In these times of a slipping moral nature, it is imperative to bring up and make new leaders of integrity so that there is hope to reverse the harm done to this country’s principals. My beliefs are that I can contribute to this achievement with my beliefs in God and training at biblical colleges and seminaries.
	Training at educational institutions will serve for the purpose of furthering my knowledge. Life can bring about many surprises and twists and turns all which need to be prepared for. Having a background knowledge of and related cases of any one subject is imperative if one desires to be able to handle it effectively. Topics such as disputes between people, counseling for the grieving, guidance for future plans, advice on ethics, and unification among many all are issues that I will endeavor to reach my potential in. The quality of being so eclectic and diverse in the subjects I can handle is purposed so as to be multi purposeful to all those I will serve. Whether it is employer, coworkers, neighbors, or even just strangers, I will strive to further the good name of those I work for and represent. This is why my furtherance of education is a necessity.
	As knowledge will be taken care of by professionals, my wisdom I will rely to obtain from God and my personal walk in Christianity. Knowing all the answers and never knowing how to implement them or alter them to each individual case becomes moot. So as much as I will strive for schooling, I will double my efforts to obtaining and retaining wisdom. A virtuous education is not obtained by mere instruction, but by possessing how to justly and rightly dispense it. Living a holy, godly life in the eyes of the Lord is how I will obtain it. Tutelage and understudying of pastors will contribute to my cognition and discernment. The greatest contributor though will be my studying of the Bible, prayer and personal meditation, inflection and examination of my own life and personal revelation will be the major source for this wisdom that I will obtain.
	My career will be one of leading all those around me, being a public representative, officially or unofficially, and doing all in a moral and upright manner. I will do this and do this in a manner pleasing to all those concerned because I have an inclination and spiritual gift to be in a role and situation as I have just described.
