I love how you explained how it's designed. "Weeding out who's really in for it for nursing and who's heart is not there." 👏🏻

I start Aug 22 and my school is 50 minutes away. I am a wife and have. 2 & 3 year old girls so I have a lot on my plate to begin with. I am nervous and excited at the same time. I have a strong support team and God on my side. So with hard work, dedication and prayer.. Anything is possible. 😀

I wrote the Ephesians 4:9 passage on a 3 x 5 card . I keep it in my binder .

I graduated with a BSN from State University in 2019. Before my nursing academic career. Motivation can be different things to different people. I was a Boxer. After being a pro athlete in a contact sport with 46 fights. I was internally programmed to get up from off the canvas to win. This was just part of my DNA. Bringing this back to Nursing, my last Clinical was a Gerriatric rotation. We had an Instructor with an ICU background. She failed me strictly over one nursing care plan. As, all of you out there probably realize. There is more than one way to correctly write a Nursing Care Plan for your Patient. This Clinical Instructor thought I wrote the NCP in a way she wouldn't have written it. So she failed me on the rotation. When I had passed all other Clinicals, Theory courses, in my 5th semester (before last semester 6). During our conference at end of Clinical. She explained, she would be giving me the (NC) grade with a smirk on her face. I looked at her, and said, "this is a mistake. See you at graduation" and her eyes opened wider. "Nothing can derail me from my destination". I appealed and took an additional Med Surg Clinical choosing nothing but elderly patients with a different Clinical Instructor. Who had more experience teaching (not a part time Clinical Instructor). In addition to carrying the full load of last 6th semester. I passed with flying colors, graduated at scheduled time of my graduation at admission into State University Nursing program, and this part time Instructor didn't even show up at my graduation like all other Instructors. Adapt, adjust, and survive at any cost. I promise anyone. If you have this mindset. You will prevail by motivation LMAO 🎓 😆

Nursing school is awesome. Just hate drama. Few tips. Your professor is always right, don't share to much info. Have fun and enjoy it

I just started nursing school yesterday. I've watched some of your videos in preparation, but this is my favorite one. You are so positive and inspiring. I will definitely come back to this video when I'm in the thick of nursing school and need a reminder to stay positive and that I can do this!

Thannk you! Thank you! Thank you! I've been on my quest since high school, and life got in the way. I'm 47 ready to begin Nursing school. Thank you for keeping it real and not sugar coating. You are a true inspiration! Keep up the great work and never stop being you!

Thanks Nurse Bass, You are so right, I just started nursing school and omg, 3 hrs of studying the first night, but I'm definitely putting the tv and phone down because I'm determined!

You make nursing school sound so crazy but if you made it into nursing school than it's so much easier than all the pre-reqs. Grad school in nursing now that is crazy.

[katlyn]

I can relate to this 100%. Everything you said is to a T. It's amazing how stark of a difference nursing school is to college and pre-reqs. It's very challenging, competitive, amazing, and rewarding all at the same time!!

Very inspiring message to first semester nursing students. I am very much looking forward to starting nursing school in 1 1/2 weeks. I know it will require hard work and discipline, but I have confidence that God will give me strength, and that I have been prepared for this moment. Thanks for the video!!
