🤔 Should I Pursue Nursing? 🧐

🤔 For some people, nursing is something you wanted to pursue since you were young. For others, it may take some time to figure out whether nursing is right for you. ⠀

⠀

🙃 In high school, I didn’t consider nursing as an option until the last minute. My plan was to either be a middle school teacher or a pharmacist and yet somehow I ended up where I am now. And till this day, I believe it was the best decision I have ever made. If I didn’t meet my friend in high school and volunteer together, who knows where my life would’ve been now. ⠀

⠀

😔 People also have fears about nursing as well. “But I don’t like needles and blood? Can I have work-life balance? What if I get overworked? But I’m an introvert, is it possible? Etc.” All these fears preventing you from pursuing further. ⠀

⠀

😊 Honestly, I believe nursing is one of the most flexible career options. You can decide your life. Work less? Work more? ✔️ Balance family and social life ✔️ Career with unlimited options ✔️ Feeling a sense of purpose ✔️⠀

⠀

🤭 I also want to be real and share the reality. Of course it’ll be tough and yes you may get burnt out. But you gotta find the right balance for yourself!! No amount of money or any career is worth risking your health. ⠀
