Manage episode 380258655 series 3501388
Ever feel like you're running on empty through nursing school, and need some practical tips to strike a balance between pushing through and taking a breather? Today we're exploring the Navy SEALs' 40% Rule, a trick of the mind designed to tap into your untapped potential and push you beyond what you think your limits are - especially handy during those intense study sessions or high-stakes exams. But we're not all about grind and grit here; we're big believers in the importance of recharging. Picture this: you're a cell phone, and just like that device you're compulsively checking, your brain needs to power up to function at its best.
Moving on, we examine the cornerstone habits of self-care routines and perseverance, and the pivotal role they play in surviving nursing school. We'll delve into the concept of a "miracle morning," inspired by Hal Elrod's bestselling book - think of it as a custom-made morning routine designed to kickstart your day on a positive note. Striking a balance is key, knowing when to pull out all the stops and when to step back and recharge. Our hope is that this conversation will give you the tools you need to navigate nursing school with a healthier mindset, and a better understanding of your own limits and potentials.
