 A good little kick in the butt to realize like yeah, nursing school is actually hard too There's nothing better than being a smart nurse because trust me like a nursing school is hard and Yeah, it's hard. Hi guys, so I wanted to do a video for you all on What do I want to do a video on? I'm just kidding. I'm being too smart to be a nurse because it's funny I actually had someone message me. No, they called me to know one of my YouTube videos recently and said Everyone tells me I'm too smart to be a nurse and that should I just go be a doctor or should I be a nurse? Because nursing like appeals to me more But everyone says I'm too smart to be a nurse and should just go to be a doctor so should I go and be a doctor and It's funny because I had this same thing happen to me when I was deciding Whether or not to be a nurse and if you know like my story of why they came in nurse Which I have probably like 16 videos on this already. I Originally wanted to be a doctor before being a nurse and when I decided to be a nurse. I had a lot of people that told me Like you're too smart to to be a nurse like you should go to med school like you have the brains for it Why don't you just go and do it and I kind of like let this information and like let these people What I want to call it like Influenced me in a way so that way like when I started nursing school I almost had this mentality of like this is gonna be a piece of cake because like and Not that I thought of it like this But I'm just gonna try and like put it in words for you guys to kind of understand what I was thinking but I thought nursing school wasn't gonna be that bad because Everyone told me that I was too smart to be a nurse and that I should go be a doctor and Everyone says med school is like super hard But I didn't really know that nursing school is also super hard So I kind of have this mentality of like oh, this is probably gonna be a piece of cake I'm gonna just kill it whatever and nursing school ended up being very difficult and although I did well at it. I It took like a good little kick in the butt to realize like yeah, nursing school is actually hard, too I wanted to talk about being too smart to be a nurse because This is that's just silly like throw that phrase out the window There's no such thing as being too smart to be a nurse because I know several nurses that are super super smart And yes, could they have gone on to med school and been amazing doctors? Absolutely, but nursing just fits them more and that's why I chose nursing instead of going the medical route is because nursing just fit me Better as far as my personality what I saw in like a career what I wanted from a career what I wanted to do every day how I interact with people how I Talk to people communicate work I just like the nursing world better than I liked the doctor world and nothing against being a doctor at all It just appealed to me more personally And so that's why I decided to go the nursing route now It doesn't matter if you're like a genius or what not you're never too smart to be a nurse if anything There's nothing better than being a smart nurse Because you are well educated you can educate your patients You can help better collaborate with physicians as far as when they come around making suggestions on things like a good smart critical thinking nurse is Priceless and I've actually had an ER physician tell me this one time. He's like there's nothing better than having nurses who are super Like well educated and great at critical thinking nurses like you cannot beat having a group of really smart nurses Because they're your eyes and ears. They're the first ones that interact with patients They're the first ones to let doctors know if like hey, this is going on and Like it really can make a difference in this patient This memory card is doing something weird and the camera keeps cutting out But anyways what I'm saying is it really does make a difference in the patient's plan of care when you have a nurse Who's well educated and smart so there's no such thing as being too smart to be a nurse And if you have people telling you that Whatever, but you have to decide if you want to be a nurse if you want to be a doctor whatever you break down the pros and cons and Don't let something such as like being too smart Be like an influence whether like oh, I can't be a nurse because I'm too smart because trust me like nursing school is hard and Yeah, it's hard Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy this video if you've had this experience or something similar comment down below let me know and Give this video thumbs up and subscribe to my channel, and I'll see you guys next time.
