ANSWER
Being A Nurse
Prompt 1
A few years ago, my cousin got involved in a fatal road accident and was seriously
injured. The nurses who attended to him were very passionate. They worked as a team and
showed genuine care. The nurses also established a strong yet professional nurse-patient
relationship with my cousin, and that helped him recover quickly. The few times I visited him
at the hospital, I got inspired by the nurse’s ability to show empathy and offer quality care to
their patients. They made their patients feel at ease and comfortable. I would rejoice and feel
honored to have the opportunity to help other families and patients who need a kind and
committed caretaker on their side.
Additionally, I have always admired human connection and nursing offers me the
opportunity to offer help to those in need and create meaningful relationships with
colleagues. Nurses always work as a team. They often share their workloads and collaborate
to develop a treatment plan or diagnosis that is individual to a patient. I find that environment
of working in a team to help other very intriguing and satisfying. I also want to be part of the
solution, but most importantly, I am that person who can be relied upon to deliver even in the
most demanding and stressing circumstances like nursing.
Prompt 2
I do not consider myself special, but I believe in my unique qualities, which sets me
apart from the rest. I am loyal, honest, genuine, and compassionate. These qualities are my
greatest strengths and have enabled me to bring happiness to other people’s lives. It doesn’t
hurt to be honest, and truthful. Being genuine and honest allows me to worry less and feel
proud. When I show compassion towards others, I get a sense of honor and integrity, which
gives me the energy to carry on and become the best version of myself. I also believe that Iam humble and do not praise myself. Humility is a virtue I have cherished all my life, and I
intend to keep it that way till the end.
On the other hand, I have other qualities that differentiate me from others, especially
in a work environment. I am a go-getter and always endeavor to achieve every set goal.
Secondly, I take calculated risks, especially when the gain is high. I do not settle for less. I
am patient and understand that success does not come overnight. Therefore, I always commit
to my goals, and I don’t believe anything can come between me and my success – I have that
intrinsic desire for excellence and greatness.
Prompt 3
I was working at a bookstore on Christmas of last year, and we had so many
customers buying books as gifts. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to wrap the gift and
requested the customers to do it themselves. So, a customer got very angry when I told him to
wrap the gift, and he even threw some harsh insults at me. I was deeply furious, but I
gathered myself and politely told the customer that we couldn’t offer gift wrapping at the
moment because that would take much time, and others were waiting in line. Surprisingly, he
calmed down, understood the situation, and was happy to wrap the gift himself.
The scenario of the angry customer was a learning experience for me. It taught me an
important life lesson: always remain calm in moments of anger and frustration. I learned that
it’s important always to control my thoughts alone and gauge my words when I am with
others. If I had shouted at him, I would probably have made the situation worse or could have
even lost my job. In moments of frustration, one cannot afford to bring their personal issues
into the ‘mix’ because that would escalate the problem. Of course, I had my own issues but I
couldn’t be arrogant to the customer. It’s not in me. Therefore, always being positive, calm,
and composed, even in the face of adversity, is key to success in any career.
