Feeling small?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Last week I had the opportunity to trek around NYC with family who was visiting.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of our activities was going to the Top of the Rock observatory.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Man, I'll tell ya...there's nothing like looking down on an island of 8.5 million people that will make you feel small.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But, I took a moment to flip my mindset. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Out of all these millions of people, me. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I get to do this work, live this life, and get chosen for opportunities.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When you look at it that way - wow - we have a lot of responsibility to live up to.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, rather than thinking, "gosh, I'll never stand out among all these people," I encourage you to think:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
"Gosh, I can't wait to show all these people what I'm going to do."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Wherever you are in your journey, there's a lot to learn from standing at the top of a skyscraper.

✨To my followers✨
I hope that wherever you are today, you remember to practice gratitude. ✨
If you are with your family, allow me to give you permission to unplug from social media and be present with your loved ones.
(And don’t forget to be thankful for your co-workers who are giving you the chance to be home today.)
✨
If you are working, try not to be down about it.
• Be thankful for gainful employment and your health.
• Try to empathize with your patients who would certainly rather be home with their loved ones.
• Take extra time with them today: your presence and care could be what THEY are thankful for today.
✨
And a little love note from me to you: • Thank you, a million times over, for allowing me into your inner circle. For letting me show up for you and drop little truth bombs and career advice.
• Thank you for double tapping, commenting, and sharing me + my mission with your colleagues and friends.
• It means more to me than you’ll ever know.
• Being @theresumerx has helped me find a piece of myself I didn’t know was missing. I know this may sound cheesy but it is so so true.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Who in our insta community would you invite to your virtual dinner table today? Tag them below so they know that you’re thankful for THEM!✨

Double tap if you want to *curate your nursing career*
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When I look at this little 3 month old turkey, I feel very lucky to have been home with her since birth.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Actually, I was home before she was born too, since when we moved in my third trimester, I decided I was going to wait to get a job.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This was me making very conscious decisions about what I wanted my career to look like.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This all started quite a bit of time ago - almost 4 years ago when I had the twins. I realized...I didn't want to be a full time NP.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At least not while they were little.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The problem was...I still had almost $85k left of student loan debt and I was in a repayment program that required full time hours.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I could have easily complained about being a victim of these circumstances, but fortunately my drive to control my career and motherhood paths was stronger than my victim mindset.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I came up with a plan.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I switched to nights: more $, a bit more time home with my babes
I picked a couple non-nights overtime shifts per month.
I finished out the 2-year loan scholarship cycle I was in and did not extend another year.
As soon as possible, I cut my hours in half, keeping all my benefits but only having half the holiday and weekend requirements.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I still picked up overtime and actually made more than when I was FT.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By the time I paid off my loans (2 years later), we were living on one income (since we had gotten used to paying so much to the loans!).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This allowed me to:
✔cut back on overtime
✔start and grow @theresumerx
✔pick up a fun per diem job
✔say yes when the opportunity came for us to move when I was 6 months pregnant.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So this year, as I practice gratitude and get out of the day-to-day, I am thankful to have CONTROL over my professional career and the opportunity to teach you on a daily basis how to take charge of your career instead of sitting back and letting life happen TO you.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In the comments (or via DM), will you share what your curated nursing career looks like?

🌟Double tap if you have a growth mindset!🌟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A growth mindset is believing that your abilities are developed through dedication and hard work.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As opposed to a fixed mindset, which is believing that people are naturally born with certain skills or have achievement through luck.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So...which mindset do you have?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sure, you know that I'm going to tell you that growth is the way to go, but have you ever caught yourself thinking or saying things like:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
-The market is oversaturated, there's no way I can get that job as a new grad⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
-She's lucky that her preceptor got her that position⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
-I'm no good at IVs/EKG reading/dermatology/[insert challenge here!]⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's easy to blame an external force for the reason why you aren't achieving something, but I'm going to tell you, WITH LOVE, that you are speaking that negativity into existence.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So, time to take a moment, channel some self awareness, and admit a limiting belief that you're ready to change.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🌟WHITE SPACE🌟⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I've talked about this before but it's worth mentioning again.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's important that your résumé has white space - meaning it's not just big blocks of text!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Choose a format that allows for it to be easily scannable ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
(Because, have you heard that hiring managers spend an average of LESS THAN 15 SECONDS looking at your résumé?!)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
