Knowledge

Heyo,

The longer I go through college the more I understand why head knowledge while valuable isn't as vital as critical thinking. I can keep stuffing facts or scenarios into my head, but if I can't make a decision when the chips are down, then it doesn't matter.

There was a test yesterday (and still no grade) and there is another bigger test this coming week. So I feel pretty qualified at the moment to tell you  that while I want the knowledge I need the hands on.
 In nursing that is the clinical section. ( I am about to go on Newborn rotation, which is super exciting).

I can't believe the semester is more than half way over...and yet it still drags onward, longer, harder. Yaaaay. Not.

Anyway use critical thinking, and get good at it by doing non-school work activities. Like jobs, or volunteer work or simple real life situations. A textbook can't give you good judgment, you have to cultivate it yourself.

Also as I continue in my new job, I have learned everything goes a bit better with a smile. Good customer service never hurts and no, that doesn't mean the customer is always right.
