If You Have Any Advice for Students Just Starting Their LPN Program...

Published

What would it be? I just got accepted and start the program on Monday. I am overly excited, but more nervous than I let on to those around me. So, if there was any advice you would have loved to receive yourself prior to your first semester, no matter what it is, what would it be? This will help me out more than you guys will ever know! :)

[color=#2f4f4f]congratulations for getting accepted into your program skim11! i wish you the best of luck as well! we can all do this. it requires a lot of time and hard work, but this is something we want, so we will prevail!

[color=#2f4f4f]"think of a car driving through the night. the headlights only go a hundred or two hundred feet forward, and you can make it all the way from california to new york driving through the dark, because all you have to see is the next two hundred feet. and that's how life tends to unfold before us. if we just trust that the next two hundred feet will unfold after that, and the next two hundred feet will unfold after that, your life will keep unfolding. and it will eventually get you to the destination of whatever it is you truly want, because you want it."

I start on the 23rd too! I am sooooo scared as I have 2 kids 4 and under and a hubby who is probably more scared than I am, lol. I am also (well was) the only working person in the house, so we now have no income coming in...so talk about PRESSURE! I can do this, I can do this. I am 32 so I HAVE to do this. Good Luck everyone!!
