well everyone, another week finished,
I am Sorry I missed the virtual classroom. I have had to work night shifts, yet another intense week at work and have found it very difficult to commit to studies but will get through.
I have experienced a number of ethical dilemmas at work over these shifts but have found referring back to the course content, and sharing with peers very beneficial. my plan is to get motivated and get on with study over the next few days, expectantly I hope you will share some of these in my forum posts. I have attached below a few quotes of the week to hopefully help,
I know they help me Terry
A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
If you're going through hell, keep going. Winston Churchill
If you want to succeed you should strike out on new paths, rather than travel the worn paths of accepted success. John D. Rockefeller
Hi Terry, I have also just completed several weeks of nights and can fully understand the feelings, my brain definitely doesn't do so well the wrong way round. Do like your Holmes quote! Ali
ReplyDeleteHi Terry, thanks for the quotes, I too am on night shift at present, only two, but I think there should be an age when you don't have to work night shift anymore! I loved the Winston Churchill quote as when I have spent time looking at this course and navigating through the technology I sometimes feel overwhelmed (hellish) but this quote reminds me to 'keep going.'
ReplyDeleteHey Terry,
ReplyDeleteI no longer have to do night shifts but the memory never fades!!
Great quotes. Nothing like a bit of inspiration to keep us plugging away at the study. I think it was Ruth who said little and often, but I find with full-time work, I still tend to work in chunks!
Just going to look at the scenarios to choose from now.
