    My mantra is "one day at a time"

    Feeling overwhelmed? Remember the old riddle. "how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.

    I LOVE the book, "Oh, the Places You'll Go! and my favorite line from it:

    “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go...”
    ― Dr. Seuss, Oh, the Places You'll Go!

    My first semester lab teachers kept this book in our classroom and would read it when we needed a pick-me-up!

    Also..."Well begun is half done."-Mary Poppins.. I prepare for anything...usually half the battle is won!

    When I get stressed or overwhelmed I stop and tell myself "just breathe." It works for me

    'To the world you may be one person but to one person you may be the world.' (regarding nurses impact on on patients.

    ' Be the Change you wish to see in the world'
