If you want to keep learning, nursing is a great job for you; nurses must continually learn.

The education and the work required to be a nurse is tough, but don’t give up. Work hard. For me, the best part of nursing is knowing I’m capable of saving a life and knowing that if I saw somebody hurt out on the street, I could do something to help him.

Also, the pay is good, and you’ll always have a job. If you’re a nurse, the only time you won’t be working is when you don’t want to. Some companies even hire “travel nurses” who get to travel all over the country—wherever they’re needed.
