This year the CLNC Mentors and I have spent a lot of time exhibiting with Certified Legal Nurse Consultants at legal conferences throughout the U.S. You could say we’ve talked to a lot of attorneys.
People who fail or flail like to take as many others along for the ride as they can. It helps to justify their failures and it’s a lot less lonely that way. Don’t get sucked in.
In this video Eula Anyiwo RN, MPA,CLNC discusses how she sent an attorney-prospect a written thank you note for endorsing her skills on LinkedIn. He was obviously impressed because to Eula’s surprise the attorney called her.
I love the holidays and, unlike most people, I love to travel during the holidays. That may sound counterintuitive – but traveling for business during the year becomes routine to me. Hopping onto a United Airlines 737 is really no different than boarding a Greyhound bus to Poughkeepsie (The passengers are more fragrant on one than the other – you’re right either way you pick.).
Yesterday I talked to an RN, Michael, who shared that he dreaded going to work and that’s why he signed up for LegalNurse.com’s CLNC Certification training program. He has eight years of nursing experience and is unhappy with the little amount of payoff he gets from his RN job. He wants more for himself.
Imagine a fatal motor vehicle accident (MVA). A car is traveling at 93 miles per hour. The driver is unconscious or otherwise unresponsive. It crashes into another car killing one passenger and injuring two others. The driver is brought up on criminal charges of second-degree manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide and various counts of criminal assault.
Most CLNC consultants know what you need to do to advance your CLNC business. That’s what your legal nurse consulting training program and certification with LegalNurse.com was all about. We’ve given you the steps to take and the order in which to take them.
Nothing annoys me more than getting fan mail from a Certified Legal Nurse Consultant, attorney or other professional that ends with “Sent from my iPhone,” “Sent from my Samsung Galaxy” or worse, “Sent from my Blackberry” (While the first two might cause gadget envy, the last one is more likely to create a sense of pity. LOL!).
I recently mentored a Certified Legal Nurse Consultant who had a case from an attorney sitting in her post office box, but didn’t know it. By the time she got around to checking the mailbox the attorney had moved on to another CLNC consultant because he hadn’t heard back from her.
If you’re considering a career as a legal nurse consultant, I’m sure you’ve thought, “How would I even get started?” The idea of changing a career is an intimidating one. Add onto that, your commitments, both personal and family, and I can understand how it would be very easy to talk yourself into thinking it just can’t be done. One of my favorite quotes from Mark Twain is “The secret of getting ahead is getting started.”
