Very helpful advice that bears repeating. Over-promise/under-deliver was part of my burnout fuel. Early on I was having some success and accolades, but that led me to get drunk on all the possibilities for patient safety and process improvement around me. "Your job will let you take on as much as you're willing to say yes to" rings true. I'm still crispy and covered in soot from my burnout, and recovery's proving a long road, but it's nevertheless good to remind myself of the ideas you've shared here.
Love this. Im a PhD nursing student with 2 young children.. i had to step away from my program for a bit. A formal leave of absence. Been wrestling with expectations of myself vs what i truly want, which I'm not even sure of.. Just knew i had to step away. Great insight/advice, thank you
Nice "I love me" wall" 😂 I'm retired USAF RN, but still working PRN as I'm only 1 or 2 years younger than you. Only 3 degrees on my wall. Keep posting. Brian
Brian, I replied to you but it was early am, so maybe I did something wrong. Anyway, you made me laugh! Keep calling me out, Brother! My little wall is hidden in my locked basement office where no one else ever has to endure it...except i suppose youtube! Be well.

The things that live on after us are the things we create, not the things we own or do…
