Momma said there will be days like this

Published

So today has been a fabulous day of feeling quite stupid. This transition period is definitely more than I bargained for. I guess it's when you finally think you have something figured out you are sent in a tail spin. I pretty much just need to put my big girl panties on and realize there will be days like this

And you know what, even with years of experience, there are still "days like that." Chin up - tomorrow is a new day! Hope its better for you.

I felt like my brain was going to explode pretty much every day for the first month of my first job. I am still learning new stuff all day long! The more competent and experienced you become, the more you will realize you have yet to learn. I don't think ANY good clinician ever completely stops having days like yours. They just hopefully become more infrequent lol.

Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. It is greatly appreciated.

Being a provider is a humbling job, no matter how long you have been at it, it seems to find a way to slapnyou back a few rugs every so often.
