Why Diana Kerekes became a Nurse




I have been a nurse for 26 yrs. Why did I become a nurse ? I decided to became a nurse since I was 6 yrs old .I saw a series on the the TV called Julia.I was awed by her. She portrayed a woman who had class . Dianne Carroll is best known for her title role in the 1968 show Julia in 1968.She was a nurse I truly admired her role and character.She was a great nurse. I respect how she portrayed a real nurse.

I can honestly say that she was a pioneer for how nurses should be seen . The problem with her wholesome ways was that it was short lived. We now have nurses portrayed as for a lack of a better word "ladies of the evening " to be politically correct but not morally correct.What an atrocity to the nursing profession.

How dare they show nurses as nothing more then common hookers ?  We are a respected profession that saves lives. We are there when patients are critically ill when they are dying and when they are struggling to survive. We are there when patients are born and when they die. I will continue to fight for the respect and dignity I deserve as a nurse who has been there for my patients to help on what ever journey destiny had determined for them.

As a seasoned nurse I have seen how the nursing profession has changed. From the time nurses would stand when a doctor came to the floor or unit until the time that nurses were recognized for the important contribution they gave to the medical team. Nurse are crucial in the well being of the patient. Their jobs should not be taken so lightly.

Why ask Diana Kerekes ?

Diana Kerekes who is she ? Diana Kerekes has come along way on the internet. I started my debut on the internet 5 yrs ago. I was a  RN who thought a internet business consisted of just putting up a website getting a domain name and there you have it .An overnight success...Well the surprise was on me .Little did I know the painstaking time it took to be successful.You need to know a home based business is not just like a real business it is.

I remember the old  cigarette commercial that said  "You have come a long way baby". I am a business owner who is involved in many projects related to giving back to the community.I love helping others. It feels great to be a part of changing people's lives.

I get a kick out of Spammers and Scammers I know how to smell  them a mile a way.They come in all different shapes and sizes. They love to hear themselves talk. They are an interesting bunch. See,the importance of making friends and creating a relationship is once you get to know someone you really grt to know them.   I also learned  how to brand myself.I learned you need to be you and portray the real you. People are watching you trust me. You need to take your business very serious if you want others to do the same.  I have learned a lot on my own .Taking the time to learn. You need to invest in you. You are a very important person. Believe in yourself.  Determination is one of  the key to success.

My advice on the internet is this... to people just starting a business:
  1. Research your business.Do your due diligence.
  2. Make sure this is your passion.You need to really like what you are doing.
  3. Remember there is "no get rich quick deals". If it sounds too good It probably is.
  4. Ask for help.Don't be afraid to ask. Everyone was new once.
  5. Socialize build relationships but don't be a salesman.People don't like to be sold. They like to buy but not be sold.
  6. Be yourself. Be true to yourself. It is your business. It is your life. 
  7. Have fun. Really have fun.
