Not sure if I am making the right decision?

Nurses Career Support

Hi all, Currently I am enrolled in an online RN refresher program after 11 years of nursing break. I let my license expire after working for 1 year as new grad. After a lot of pushing from my family and friends regarding renewing my RN license, I enrolled myself in the refresher. Being away for 11 years from the nursing environment, I feel like I am not into it anymore and have no desire to work in those conditions but everyone keep on telling me to just renew the license and you don't have to work as a nurse. Their intention is to "keep my license active" no matter if I want to work or not. Is this the right choice I am making? I keep on telling my family I am not into nursing anymore. I am scared of it..they say.."Just activate your license!!! What should I do?

Thank you so much for responding to my post. I keep asking myself I hope I am not making the mistake by not renewing but I guess I don't want to go through the stress that comes with the territory..You are right I really don't have the passion for it..If I had the passion, I know I am hard-worker and would have made it through..!! now I have search for posts about "What to do with a BSN"???
