Keeping up with Technology, Michelle Podlesni, RN @MPodlesni, #nurseup #entrepreneurs

Keeping up with Technology, Michelle Podlesni, RN @MPodlesni, #nurseup #entrepreneurs:"Starting your own business can be overwhelming.  Once you commit to go down that road it is easy to get lost in the world of the latest and greatest technologies and the the endless options available for social networking.  I mean if you only knew how to harness that power you could reach the whole world with your great business — right?  In addition to learning all the software apps you’ve chosen, now you have to keep track of things, your calendar and to do lists as well as remembering all your account names and passwords.  So many things to think about and so many bases to cover.  Just make sure you don’t forget Home base."

The Benefits of Crafting…, Michelle Podlesni, RN, @Mpodlesni - #nurseup #crafting #smallbusiness

The Benefits of Crafting…, Michelle Podlesni, RN, @Mpodlesni:"This past week’s Parade Magazine had an article on the benefits of crafting and how it is making a comeback in this country.  More than half of U.S. households take part in at least one crafting activity such as canning, scrapbooking, and sewing.  The article said that some reasons for this rise in making homemade goods relates to people trying to slow down the pace of modern life, people desiring to learn skills passed down from their grandparents and the sense of accomplishment and the pleasure of creating things.  The article spoke of a gentleman that after an extended illness found that he had difficulty concentrating.  His therapist recommended a meditative hobby such as knitting.  He found that knitting calmed his hyperactive mind and people would ask him where he got his hat and scarves.  He started selling them and it became so lucrative that he quit his job and now enjoys his craft full time."

32% of nurses are dissatisfied with their jobs and will be taking steps in the next few years to change their work. @MPodlesni #nurseup

"According to a survey by the largest U.S. healthcare staffing company, 32% of nurses are dissatisfied with their jobs and will be taking steps in the next few years to change their work. The majority of nurses I speak with and coach tell me they are overworked, unappreciated, devalued, exhausted and burned out."
