When I graduated high school I went straight into the work field with my stepfather. He had recently been laid off from his job due to the failing economy. The only option he had at the time was to start his own buisness. He asked me to help, he said the only way that he was going to be able to make it work was with my help. Knowing that, I had to help. I planned on going to college after high school but due to the circumstances I settled into working everyday. After three years I noticed it just wasn't what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I began looking for options for my college education.The transition back into school was far from easy. I needed to get back into "academic mode", so I began as a half time student. I am now ready to find funding to go full time. If I could go back I would tell myself to start college as soon as you can. I would say don't get out of the swing of school. Begin college as a full time student, and get it done!

Some people tend to do things without even thinking of the things that might happen. They tend to just pursue and assume for their future without weighing the pros and cons. In choosing for a right course and school, takes a lifetime decision. In making decisions, predict the outcome of the situation to be able to find its worth. The advice that I would give to myself is following what my heart desires. It is the only way I can be able to do my task passionately. In doing so, I know that I will be able to take good care of my patients and prioritize them.
