Goals in life

I have many goals in my life. I know we all do but I am ready to get those goals going. I have been an LPN for 8 years and am ready to move on. I really do love being a nurse but sometimes feel my career goals are moving in a backwards direction. I started working in a rapid admissions/ER unit when I became a nurse and then advanced as able. I have worked in Oncology/Med-Surg, Geriatrics, Management, and several other places in between. I am now a school nurse working with pre-teen pediatrics. I love this job but am ready to keep moving forward in my goals to be a flight nurse. How do I achieve this? How do I move forward? Where do I go next?

    aaawwww...I know the feeling. I have a friend/acquaintance that I think has done this. Do you want me to email her and see, and if so give her your email address? I sometimes feel as though maybe I went down the wrong path and that I could do SO much more...make a bigger difference. Sometimes I feel so complacent and that life is just passing me by. Before I know it the kids will be gone and all I'll have is my work. I just wish I could do something BIGGER, but in my case it would take more education.
    Now, on a selfish note, if you leave I will miss you! But I know you have to follow your dreams! GOOD LUCK!!

    Love ya!

    You are so sweet when you want to be! I did not realize you had it in you!!!! I'm just kidding. Anyway, I would love to talk with your friend and see if they enjoy the job. I have always wanted to do this and would love to kind of "get the feel" before I spend all this time working towards this goal. I do feel like I can do bigger things in my life and everyday aspire to do that... although some days I do go about it very slowly!!! Thanks Tricia! You really are a great friend!
