Congratulations on considering enrolling in a DBA program at Maine University to focus on Health care management. With your master's degree in nursing, this will be a great program to further boost your already fulfilling career.

I know how invested and passionate you are about the field of health care and the need to help people who otherwise could not afford certain privileges. For sure, you are taking this decision to go back to school seriously and if you are like me, it may have taken you a lot time already.

Knowing you however, I am certain that once you make your decision, you will stick with it and see it to completion. It may be difficult at times, but not impossible and could even be fun sometimes if you plan well.

Although statistics show that the attrition rate is rather high at about 50% at this level of educational pursuit, but if you are committed and goal oriented, you will be successful irrespective of obstacles encountered. I must tell you that Liberty would be a great choice for you. Here, because of its faith-based background, everyone is cheering and praying for your success.

I have found out so much about how the Christian principle could be applied to everything we do; business, work, leisure, everyday life. It is simply amazing! With the online program, you also have the flexibility and convenience of managing the program to suit your schedule. You will find that tuition here is affordable compared to other institutions.

It will not be easy with your job, husband, kids and your aging mother. However, with Crystal going off to college this fall, you may realize you would have a little bit of recreational time, so this may be the best time to start.

Your family can be great motivation and help throughout the program. Always try to maintain that balance between work, family and learning. Make out time to do important and some fun things with your family.

There will also be a lot of sacrifices. I know your daughters look up to you as a great role model and taking this step and staying the course will further elevate that. Doing so requires a lot of persistence, discipline, great time management, motivation, and above all trust in God.

The workload is daunting and can be overwhelming. The need to keep going even when things get difficult cannot be over emphasized and knowing that all things are possible when we put our trust in God. Discipline is very essential for organizing and prioritizing to make the best out of the tedious and some times grueling schedule. Set your goals and work towards it and do not take anything for granted.

Time management is key to also organizing your thoughts and actions, strategically allocating time to activities. It is always better to plan to avoid being overwhelmed when everything becomes due at the same time. Allocate time and space each week for your assignments. Always remember the reason for pursuing this program, write out your motivations and ultimate goals and keep them where you can often look at them. These will act as catalysts whenever you feel overwhelmed and stressed out.

Also, be open to asking for help when needed. It goes a long way. For this reason, it is very important to connect and have good relationships with your advisor and faculty.

Here at Liberty, I have found the faculty ready and willing to help at any point. You will need to also connect with other students because, going through the same process, they are in a good position to be of help and encourage you. Moreover, those friendships can last a long time. Choosing a dissertation topic early and continuously working on it helps to assuage the stress of the process towards the end.

Above all, faith in God is very important in this whole journey. With prayers, I know that the God who started this thing in your life will take it to its completion. With him all things are possible, just trust, believe and obey. I know you can do it!
