I’ve always believed that the answer to my destiny lies in creating the results that I desire. I wanted to have a such profession that will help people to make their lives more interesting and much better. For a a successful and fruitful career, I must determine the shape that my actions will take, and trust in their finality. A desire or an intention becomes a goal if and only if one activates an action for achieving it . Individuals can set personal goals. A student may set a goal of a high mark in an exam. An athlete might walk five miles a day. My goal is to become a qualified spacialist in sphere of Human rights and Liberties, in Law.Knowing precisely what one wants to achieve makes clear what to concentrate and improve on, and often subconsciously prioritizes that goal. For realizing my future primary and distinct plans and goals I want to try to find power which can help me to make something better in our society. I am agree with Francis Bacon, who coined the phrase “knowledge is power” and I know that human rights and liberties is the power that I search. Human rights refer to the basic rights and freedoms to which all humans are entitled. Examples of rights and freedoms which have come to be commonly thought of as human rights include civil and political rights, such as the right to life and liberty, freedom of expression, and equality before the law; and economic, social and cultural rights, including the right to participate in culture, the right to food, the right to work, and the right to education. In the rapidly developing 21st century our young republic needs high qualified lawyers for democratic and economic development. Corruption in Armenia is a widespread and growing problem in Armenian society. As I am a very responsible and goal-oriented person with a passion for making new methods, new plans, using new ideologies to solve some problems that I meet in my working experience , I can develop my abilities and qualities via a more systematic studying program and in future contribute them to democratic and economic development of Armenia.
I hope that I will be accepted!!
