Do you ever get the feeling that you need to move on from nursing and then you get instantly overwhelmed and dismiss the idea because…well, how would you do that? 

I’ve had those same feelings. 

I’ve poured a lot of time and money into my nursing career. It is a respected profession. I love helping people so why wasn’t I happy? 

Despite the reputable professional title of RN, I just wasn’t enjoying it anymore. My nursing job was becoming a chore. My nursing position in the healthcare system for me, was no longer sustainable.

I would fantasize about winning the lottery and tending my resignation. Or I would start looking for other opportunities, only to feel lukewarm about making a change.

It’s hard to leave the job security that nursing provides, I’m right there with you.

 Here comes the BUT…

 But if you want a different job or to feel excited about a new opportunity, you are going to have to take a risk.
