Scared outta my mind!!!

[chasingthedream]

guys i'm scared outta my mind right now. in the course of two weeks, i've quit my job and decided to finally chase my dream of becoming a nurse. thing is, i have no idea what to expect or what's ahead for me. i feel like i've just jumped off a cliff and am in the midst of a free fall without any idea of how far away the bottom really is. this is like nothing else i've ever done in my life, i mean i used to be a train conductor for goodness sakes. i start school in may and i've never been happier in my life. nor have i ever been more scared. any advice or encouragement you could shoot my way would be greatly appreciated!!!

thanks so much and i look forward to joining all of you soon!

Hello there!

I am in the exact same boat you are : ) I recently quit my job and am starting school full time this summer to be a Nurse. Like you, I have no idea what to expect and I am scared but excited at the same time. I am nervous for the challenge but I know I need to make this move now and not wait any longer. Everyone has been really supportive so far telling me what a great nurse I will be. I hope so!

I wish you the best of luck and I am happy for you to take this step. It does feel great to make such a decision for our lives doesn't it?

We can do it!

Congratulations! Itś going to continue to be both scary and exciting for some time. I started nursing school in February and since then I´ve been tired, exhausted, scared, anxious and happier than I´ve been in a long time. So far it´s been one of the most amazing things I´ve done in my life...
