Careers are like gardens: we plant seeds with hopes for the future. We water, fertilize, and watch the tender shoots emerge from the soil. With any luck, those shoots turn into thriving, healthy plants. If careers are like gardens, how are you tending to the garden of your nursing career? Is it flourishing and fertile, or has it become barren, deprived of water, nutrients, sun, and tender loving care?
