Dear Future Nurse- An Open Letter from the Future You

Dear Future Nurse,

I know that you are terrified, “shaking in your boots”, and completely unsure about yourself. You are questioning if you made the right choice. Will you actually be able to complete this program? What if you cannot do it? Your family has dedicated and sacrificed so much for you to be here, and you cannot afford to disappoint them. “You can do this” is a daily mantra that you should repeat to yourself because you actually can. Believe in yourself. You want to help others, and this is the right place, the right time, and you are the right person to do this. Your parents believe in you, your family supports you, Georgia Baptist chose you to be a representative in their student body. You have ample tools to succeed, so use them accordingly. You are excited about figuring out exactly where you fit in within the hospital. Continue with that fervor and stay motivated even on your lowest, most exhausting days. Your feet may ache, your eyes may be tired, but you know that it is all worth it when your patients are smiling, feeling better, and appreciate your efforts to maintain their safety and comfort. You live for serving others, and you have been guided towards and have followed the correct path to do exactly that with your life. So, yes, you may be terrified, but you know this is truly what you want to do with your life. Work hard, keep your faith, and continue fighting for your future patients because you truly need each other. You are capable, you are dedicated, and you are ready. Do not convince yourself otherwise. Congratulations on your journey; I cannot wait to see you at the finish line.

Sincerely,


A Future You
