First of all, saying "Do what you love" is a little too much of a fairy-tale saying; I'm sure tons of people want to be artists, but it's clearly not financially responsible. I'd love to paint, or even watch TV for a living... but that's clearly not a very good option. That's why I -wanted- to be a nurse, because of the supposed financial security, as well as job stability. The problem is, is that I I don't know if nursing is something I want to do. I keep hearing people say "You have to REALLY want to be a nurse to be a nurse!" That's the problem, I don't really -want- to be a nurse! I just want to be able to pay my bills and live comfortably. I just want something with job stability. I want to be able to FIND a job and actually have the ability to move up. That's what nursing offers, apparently. Will I hate my job? Will I even be able to make it through nursing school? I sure don't -feel- very motivated. Should I even bother becoming a nurse? What do I do? P.S. I'm not sure if I handle stress very well, either.
