Most people chase a bigger paycheck.
But the smartest people chase something far rarer: control over their time.

Because money can buy comfort,
but time gives you freedom.

Freedom to start your day slow.
To take a walk when your mind needs space.

For years, I measured success by income.
But here’s the uncomfortable truth:

A high salary means nothing if your schedule still owns you.

Because anyone can make money.
Very few can design their days. Thoughts?

What is the average pay for a Laboratory Assistant at Adventhealth.

Researching the job mkt & pay for nursing: It is so easy to set up a first interview esp. as a nurse. Set up a zoom meeting, in the zoom meeting ask abt job details and ask for the salary range. They will give it to you, and in my case it was the same range for both of the companies. (Hospice oncall nurse here👋). Then you fit in somewhere on that continuum based on education & experience—that where the negotiation comes in—they will make a case to place you as low as possible on the scale.
