You don't get the things you wish for.

 

How much time do you spend wishing something was different in your nursing career?

Wishing for someone to pick you or the perfect career to magically fall into your lap.

Wishing that someone would tell you the exact steps to get out of that career rut you have been stuck in.

Or maybe just wishing you had done something different in your career, so you hadn't ended up where you are.

So many nurses spend their nursing careers wishing something was different.

And let's be real, these feelings started way before the pandemic.

But wishing for something different in your career and then doing nothing is a waste of time.

Because if you want something to truly be different, you have to be willing to commit and do the work.

This means stopping all the BS indecisive thinking and committing to doing the work on it every day, even if it feels like nothing happens.

And this can be incredibly hard work.

This journey requires that you are willing to experience failures, setbacks, and hearing no....and still being ready to keep going. 

But it will be worth it. 

Not only for the things you will achieve, but because of the person, you will become from making your nursing career your own.

How do you start? 

Step 1: Make a decision today.

Cut the indecision since this will just keep you stuck and confused. Make a decision and begin working towards it.

Step 2: Take easy steps towards your goal

It doesn't have to be mind-blowing, and most of the magic happens in the baby steps. Focus on doing 

something easy that will move the needle towards your goal. 

Need ideas? - Join a professional organization, complete your LinkedIn profile, talk to your manager about your goals.

Step 3: Commit to being consistent.

Whether you are training for a marathon or trying to get a new job, consistency is always key. Doing one easy goal a week can lead to huge strides in your career. 

Here is to you and your success in 2021.

I believe in you and your possibilities,

P.S. It takes an average of five months for a person to find land a new job. If you are burnout this process can be longer or worse make decisions that cost them time and money because they are in such a hurry to get out of where they are at now.

In my 1:1 coaching program I help nurses work through their burnout while getting them ready to make the next step in their career. Instead of a one size fits all career pathway, we will create one specific to you and your personal goals whether they are a traditional path or you want to trailblaze a new path.
