Okay, so 2018 is just around the corner. While we all hope for peace, good health and prosperity, what are some of the particulars of your hopes/goals for 2018?

For myself:

1. I just started a new job and hope to get it more organized.

2. I need to gain a new perspective on nursing as a whole so that I can approach it with a fresh mind/outlook.

3. Cont my weight loss journey.

4. Change my overall attitude towards stressors in my life and establish better-coping skills.

So...how about you??

Relocate. I was hoping to have this accomplished by the end of 2017, but securing employment in a super-saturated job market is taking longer than I'd hoped, go figure. I'm looking forward to starting a new job and finding a new home. I love change (I'm not being sarcastic, for a change, lol) and I'm looking forward to finding my place in a totally new environment.

Could be a difficult one, but I'm going to aim for no more job applications. See if I can go an entire year without pestering other employers (especially one) with my applications and try to just focus on the job I have right now. I'll also try to focus on no comparison to others so my "need" for a new job decreases.

Specializes in Trauma ICU.

Continue to grow in my current job, I have only been there a few months and still have much to learn.

Pass the CCRN!

Make more time for family, my kids are growing up way too fast!

Start running again, I've been down since a leg injury earlier in the year. But it's time to get back out there (once it warms up anyways, I hate the cold).

And...remember to renew my license on time. í ¾í´£
