Talk about a short term goal or ambition you have. v.1

Talk about a short term goal or ambition you have. v. 1
Talk about a short term goal or ambition you have. You should say: what is it how long you have it how difficult it would be to have it fulfilled and explain what you need to do to achieve it. [You will have to talk about the topic for one to two minutes. You have one minute to think about what you're going to say. You can make some notes to help you if you wish. ] Model Answer: Goals and ambitions in our lives play important roles as they help us stay focused and plan accordingly to achieve them. We all have long term and short term goals in our lives and we dream to achieve them all. One of the short time goals or should I say ambition I currently have is to migrate to Canada/ UK/ USA/ Australia and settle there for a couple of years. I have finished my graduation in M. B. A from a reputed university in my country and then worked for 2 years in a multinational company. The valuable experience I gather during these 2 years would be very helpful for me to further enhance my career. In the meanwhile, if I can work for a company situated in a first world country that fosters multi-cultural work environment and deals with top-notch businesses, would be a great uplift for my future. I have decided to fulfil this goal 1 year ago and then started working accordingly. In fact, the IELTS exam I am participating in was a part of my preparation to requirement fulfilment to achieve this goal. So far I have been doing fine to be allowed to migrate to the country I have targeted, but yet nothing is certain. I am hopeful that I would be able to fulfil all the criteria I am required to complete to be allowed to go there. In my country the working and training experience in a first world country is esteemed greatly and to participate in our economy, I need to learn the business ethics and idea from a country which is considered to be a pioneer in it. This is the main reason I would like to go and work there. Apart from that, it would allow me to enhance my knowledge, experience and would broaden my horizon which would be very much beneficial for my future.   Part 3 – Two-way discussion: Q. What kind of things give status to people in your country? Q. Have things changed since your parents’ time? Q. What are the important qualities to achieve our ambitions? Q. Are all ambitions good in life? Q. What type of ambitions young generation in your country has? Q. Would you focus more on achieving your ambition or doing things you love to do?   Similar Cue Card Topics Your ability to talk about this Cue Card would enable you to talk about the following Cue Cards as well: Describe a dream you have.
