Each & Every Opportunity

-
Through nursing school, it can easily feel as if you're fully immersed without exit. While the workload might make everything seem impossible to juggle, it's easy to remember how rewarding it is. It's hard to make time for anything else but nursing school, but we all make do. Each nursing student is juggling a myriad of dreams and goals while trying to pave a bright future ahead.

When given opportunities, no matter how many obstacles stand in your way... it's important to take advantage of each one in your path. When you receive news of a great opportunity, at the moment it's jumping for joy... but over time the reality sets in. The work and desire to make it all perfect is so exciting but can also seem like a looming cloud.

But the important thing is to stay positive. Remind yourself... things aren't slipping through the cracks, you can do it, and to stay focused on the task ahead.

Take every day as a blessing!

Focusing in Chunks

Many of those who walk through the doors of nursing school are already predisposed to be analytic, task-oriented, and able to synthesize information. While that might be handy for the job or many of the things that we are taught throughout the education process when it comes to deliverables those can be some harmful traits to have. Yes, it is fun to have many of the necessary deliverables done ahead of time, and to being offloading so most of your work is done ahead of time... if only there was this work ethic and ease in high school... but in nursing school, everything is given at a certain time for a reason. Sure, you can work up to your first exam, but you might be hindering yourself if you get TOO ahead. Currently, I am working up to each exam, but trying not to get ahead of myself. I am currently trying to gain my GPA some cushion points (in Adult Health no less...) by only offloading to a certain point so that I can stay focused on the information that is on the next exam. ...

Get Pumped!

Per usual- it's been a bit since I've posted on my blog and I wanted to give a slight life update into the projects that have been on my plate. Since the start of The Non-Profit, it has been hard work trying to juggle each avenue of what needs to be done. - Somehow the list never ends, but the excitement grows with it! We are currently trying to grow our audience, partnerships, and investments across the board. We have many goals and the partnerships we have formed just make me more and more excited for the future to come. More so, school is exciting but I am clinging onto the edge of my seat! Everything is hectic and crazy as usual!

Going to the Capitol Building

Last Tuesday, 1/15/2019, I had the extraordinary opportunity to go to the Capitol building with the Staff of my school to talk to our representatives about some of the legal action that nurses need within our field. Two examples of what we talked about are: APRN being able to order imaging studies in all cases (not just emergency)  Tax credit needs to be given to nursing preceptors  We were able to meet with GNA (Georgia Nurses Association) to go over what our mission is, after that, I was able to drop the gifts we brought into the offices of the representatives I was given. Next, we entered the capitol building. After going through security we made our way to the Georgia House of Representatives floor and sent pages to get our representatives. We talked to a few while waiting, and while my two assigned representatives both were not available, it was an amazing process to experience. The entire process was much easier than I imagined and something that I had wish ...
