Every day I hear from RNs who say “I waited XX years to finally take the CLNC® Certification Program. I should have done it sooner.” Waiting patiently for what we want is not a strategy for achieving it. That’s why I love the quote “Life wasn’t too short: it was too long to waste unduly on non-love, non-laughter and non-decisions.”
Yes, I believe life is short. But I also believe we have been given plenty of time to waste. And that was even before the COVID-19 pandemic.
What does wasting time look like? Staying in one place, never taking risks and dodging hard decisions. When you look back (whether it’s today or 10 years from today) I hope you’ll savor the love, laughter and joy of the decisions you’ve nurtured in your life.
Success Is Yours,
