Have you ever wondered whether you\’re cut out to be an entrepreneur? Nurses sometimes tell me they aren\’t sure if their nursing career has prepared them to start and succeed in their own legal nurse consultant practice Yet even the most routine nursing job is full of life lessons that apply to the business world
My first job as an intensive care nurse in a major medical center prepared me for business success Subsequent jobs reinforced those early messages I invite you to look closely at your own nursing career and discover the lessons that will help you succeed as a legal nurse consultant
Success Lesson 1 鈥?Find Your Passion and Turn It into a Business
As much as I loved my work with critically ill patients and their families, my inner voice told me I wouldn\’t be working in a hospital forever As a young nurse, the vision of myself working in the ICU at age 40, 50 or 60 just wouldn\’t come into focus
With only 6 years of nursing experience, I left the hospital and started my legal nurse consultant business From there, I listened to my inner voice and reconnected with my first passion teaching At age 8, I spent hours every day teaching an imaginary class Today I am privileged to teach, coach and mentor nurses to live their career dreams I turned my passion into a business, and since then I haven\’t worked a single day
Listen to your inner voice, and you will find your passion Many nurses have reconnected to their passion through legal nurse consulting, a choice unknown to them before they took my program
Success Lesson 2 – You Have the Power to Take Control of Your Career Destiny
Patients heal faster when they take control of their health and practice healthy habits Even the smallest positive action can give a patient a sense of control and empower the healing process
I learned this lesson time and again as I struggled to gain control of my own nursing career Each time I refused to give in to the frustrations of working within the healthcare system and took a positive step on my own, I felt better With every step I grew, I thrived and I came up with new ideas to further my sense of control and satisfaction
The same is true about your career You have the power to practice the healthy habits essential to take control of your career destiny Educate yourself about the steps to achieving career health, including new career options like legal nurse consulting Then take action on those steps You really can take control of your career destiny
Success Lesson 3 – Don\’t Give in to Fear
As a nurse, I frequently treated patients who had the same progressive disease, yet experienced dramatically different outcomes Fake Designer Watches. We all have known patients who lived years after their predicted demise and other patients who should have lived but didn\’t because they gave up or didn\’t want to live The fact that so many elderly patients die within months of losing a spouse is a solid example of the mind-body connection In almost every case, the patients who died too soon had given in to fear
There\’s also a mind-business connection that will influence the health of your business When I give in to fear, I become the biggest obstacle to my success That was true when I started my business 19 years ago That is true today
Fear will paralyze you instantly Practice mind control and exercise your mind daily for positive thinking Shake off your lack of confidence and negative thinking Don\’t wait for an MI to stop inhaling the toxic smoke of fear Don\’t let fear be the reason you don\’t live your career dreams Always remember the mind-set of the patients who live and the patients who die
Success Lesson 4 – Nurses Can Do Anything
As nurses most of us have brought patients back to life We all can recall at least one miracle story a case where, with our help, a patient survived against all odds
Whenever I face a business crisis, I remind myself, \”I\’m a nurse and nurses can do anything\” I\’ve repeated this same message for 19 years, and it has helped me overcome every obstacle
If you can heal sick patients and handle life-threatening emergencies as easily as you make your bed in the morning, you really can do anything – especially something as straightforward as starting a business
Success Lesson 5 – You Can\’t Climb Mount Everest without Practicing on the Foothills
I had to have extensive education and training just to qualify for my first nursing job All the lessons from that job helped prepare me for the next Each successive nursing position required new and different skills necessitating more training and education
The same applies to owning a business Today I handle things easily and successfully that seemed impossible 19 years ago But that\’s because I\’ve been in training for what I do now ever since I became a nurse
If you\’re frustrated with your nursing career, don\’t feel like you\’ve thrown your life away No experience or job is a waste Everything you have done has trained you to move up to the next level Above all, don\’t let the fact that you\’re not trained to climb Mount Everest stop you from pursuing your dreams of becoming an independent legal nurse consultant Your nursing training and experience was the first step Start the next step of your training today, and you will make that climb to start your successful legal nurse consultant business
Success Lesson 6 – The Nursing Process Is Your Friend
When I left clinical nursing, I thought I could set aside the \”nursing process\” forever I couldn\’t have been more wrong Business requires that same process of assessment, diagnosis, planning, implementation and evaluation Replica Christian Louboutin. Every project I take on requires me to assess the possibilities and needs, diagnose the problems, plan how to achieve my goals, implement the plan and evaluate my results
Your nursing jobs have prepared you well You can apply the nursing process to any business situation and challenge You will thank your nursing instructors for this one Every time you review a medical-related case, interview with an attorney or face a challenge in running your business, you will rely on the process they taught you
Success Lesson 7 – Act Quickly and Decisively
As an ICU nurse, I learned that seconds made a difference in patient outcome That\’s true for nurses in any specialty I rarely had lots of time to ponder or brood over a clinical decision
I have applied the same principles of acting quickly and decisively in business, too Am I always correct? No Do I make mistakes? Yes Yet because of my nursing experience, I\’m never paralyzed into inaction and I\’ve been able to make the most of numerous opportunities I would have missed without acting quickly
Don\’t miss your chance to succeed Learn to act quickly and decisively, and you will grow your legal nurse consultant business
Success Lesson 8 – What You Focus on Is Where You Achieve Results
In nursing I was often overwhelmed by short staffing, heavy caseloads and lack of support from hospital administration I soon learned to triage and focus on what I needed to do to heal patients in this less-than-ideal environment Nursing taught me that where I focus my time is where I achieve results
That skill comes in handy in business It\’s as important to triage and prioritize your actions in business as it is when working with patients Every day I\’m confronted with dozens of challenges, five things that must be done at once, and 20 new creative ideas for my business, but I rarely panic The organizational and multi-tasking skills I learned as a nurse have served me well
When you start your legal nurse consultant business, you will not receive any extra hours in the day In fact, the days will feel shorter Even the general public knows that working conditions for RNs are worse than ever Your ability to focus on what\’s really important under these conditions is the perfect preparation for your successful legal nurse consultant practice
Success Lesson 9 – This Is Just Business, It\’s Not Breast Cancer
Ministering to patients and family members helped me put life with all its problems and challenges into perspective Fake Designer Handbags. Today when I overreact to a problem or feel I\’m in crisis, I think of sick and dying patients I think, \”Now fighting for your life is a REAL problem\”
In business I\’ve had lots of ups and downs When the down moments come, I remind myself, \”This is business – not breast cancer\” This helps me focus positively on solving the problem rather than embarking on a pity party I\’ve thrown plenty of those \”parties\”, and they never helped me solve a single business problem
As you grow your legal nurse consultant business, it helps to ask \”So what if this month is not as successful as I planned?\” or \”So what if my best attorney-client retires?\” and to remember its just business, not breast cancer
Success Lesson 10 – Illness Can Wake You Up
As a nurse I treated many patients who only began to live after they almost died We\’ve all had patients who said they are glad they got sick, because while they were well, they weren\’t living the life they wanted The health crisis forced them to wake up, reassess their lives, decide what was truly important to them, and go for it
Not every day is a healthy business day Some days I wake up to a disease challenge in my business Surprisingly, it\’s the business ills and mistakes that often awaken me to creative ways of injecting my business with new life
If your career is facing a health crisis, this is your opportunity to wake up and change things for the better Legal nurse consulting is one way to restore the health of your career
Success Lesson 11 – Business Is Personal
Even though technical skills are vital for an ICU nurse, the relationships with patients and their families were what mattered most to me Those relationships paid off one day when I made a mistake Because of our relationship, the patient requested that I continue being his nurse despite my error
Legal nurse consulting is a service business where you will apply the same relationship principles you learned in nursing to your attorney-clients and prospects Provide quality service and excellent work product that no other legal nurse consultant can replicate, and soon you\’ll feel like you\’re in a short-staffing situation all over again
Success Lesson 12 – Healthy Patients Take Care of Themselves
We\’ve all worked with healthy and unhealthy patients and we\’ve seen the effects of poor health habits on the human body The health of a pregnant woman is often dramatically reflected in the health of her offspring
To run a successful company you must enjoy an optimal state of health Give yourself permission to take care of yourself I love my business, but I love myself more After all, without a healthy me, I couldn\’t muster the energy to give 110% to my clients and employees every day
Every lesson I learned from nursing, I apply to my business today You\’ve already learned similar lessons yourself You don\’t need another hospital job to help you succeed in business Take a moment to revel in all nursing has taught you These lessons will multiply your success when you transfer them to your new legal nurse consulting practice

Save Your Marriage By Sharing Your Feelings
My Own Personal History I don’t know if you grew up like I did glass Corrosion Bangle. but this whole business of someone sharing their feelings was just not done. If feelings were shared. they came more as outbursts rather than anything constructive. You see Popular Jewelry Wholesale. I’m 56 years of age. so my growing up period (actually. I think we’re always in the process of growing. but for now I’ll confine the term to adolescence) was from 1965 to 1975. The whole “feelings sharing” encounter was more for hippies and the commune crowd and not for Missouri mid-westerners. Back then it was considered weakness for men to show anything but an in-control-of-any-situation demeanor. When it came to sports gemstone Wood Bangles. then it was OK to cheer for your team or show bitter disappointment when they lost vintage Wood Cufflink. but that was sports and not real life. In real life men were to be men. Strong. self-sufficient. everything well-in-hand. Wadaya mean “share your feeling”??? It’s Really Not Much Better Today Now there’s much more chatter about a man getting in touch with his “feminine side.” That’s actually a very silly turn of phrase because feelings are neither male nor female. good or bad. right or wrong. They just are. Unless you have some extreme psychological problem. you will feel and often feel deeply about a lot of things. We somehow have gotten a very stupid cultural norm in play (especially in the employment arena). that expressing your feelings is unprofessional and really not good for morale; when actually its quite the opposite when done right. This article’s purpose is to introduce the subject of properly sharing your feelings so that its not embarrassing or threatening. But Tiffanys Paloma Picasso brochures. be forewarned! You can’t just read an article and. all by yourself handmade . learn how to share your feelings… which brings me to the first point… 1. To successfully learn how to share your feelings. the education and subsequent practice. must be done with someone else (one on one is best) or a group (not as good because of our nature to be competitive). You can learn the rules of basketball from a book opal cross pendant. but you can only learn to play basketball by doing it. Don’t think you can learn this on your own and then go do it with someone else. If the ground rules aren’t followed it will be more like doing it TO someone instead of doing it WITH someone (your spouse of significant other). Our vocabulary has limited “feeling” words silpada . leading to my second point… 2. Sharing your feelings requires using the right “feeling” words in such a way as the other person is able to understand the depth of what you are sharing. Without that in place. one person will believe they are being ignored and the other frustrated because they just don’t get it. And believe me(twilight Wood Bangle). things will start getting pretty dicey when that happens. As with anything. sharing your feelings well with someone who can “hear” your feelings well tiffany and co(Tungent pendant television). takes regular and consistent practice. You can’t get that special “aha” moment from what you will read here. You have to work at it until there is that critical breakthrough. But swarovski . when you learn how. it will be like finding a brand new relationship… and it’s worth the effort. Finally… 3. Begin now to purge the popular way of saying “feel” or “feeling” from your vocabulary. Those words are used as threatening speech intensifiers. For example. “I just feel Steve’s not doing a very good job.” BAD use of the word “feel.” Or “I’m feeling like you haven’t heard a thing I’ve said!” Again BAD use of the word “feeling.” Why? Because if you can substitute the word “think” or “believe” in the sentence for the word “feel” or “feeling” then you are not sharing a feeling. Learn to say. “I THINK Steve’s not doing a very good job.” Or(Gold Bracelets auctions). “I believe you haven’t heard a thing I’ve said and I FEEL frustrated!” Much better. because “frustrated” is a feeling and “believe” is a perception. “Think” is also a perception. Start the process by removing unproductive and threatening ways of using the words “feel” or “feeling” as intensifiers and begin using them properly. This will help a great deal in successfully sharing your feelings with your special someone. If you will learn this together(Stainless Steel Earring auctions). then you will experience a real depth in your relationship the exchange. that you never thought was possible and you will also save your marriage or relationship.
