Learning how to say no, without fear will be a challenge but something I think will be good for me. I will also need to learn how to ask for help, especially in my early days, without fear of being looked upon as incompetent or somehow less than capable of performing my duties. Many of the elements of my personality are prime triggers for work burnout. It is for this reason that likely the most powerful tool I will have in avoiding burnout will be self-awareness. I may use a technique such as journaling in order to chronicle my day-to-day feelings about my work, my satisfaction and myself. When I notice...
Perhaps I need to take a break, reorganize my schedule, and get into counseling again if I am not currently attending. It is important that I try to identify the elements of burnout that are specific to my personality and be aware of them before they start to cause problems for me and for my patients and colleagues alike. If I have a plan before I start, then it is likely I will be able to minimize the impact that burnout has on me.

I have a relatively flexible work schedule, and I have a very supportive family. My family and my employer are as committed to my personal and professional growth as I am and I believe I should have little problem maintaining a 15-20-hour a week schedule for school. My approach to my academics will be one where I add hours to my day prior to work, in the morning and in
Of particular value in connecting my thoughts and actions is Covey's rationale for the required paradigm shift. This has proven true many times over in my career as a registered nurse.
