Answer 3 for DNP 801 Based on your self-reflection, discuss two core principles from your personal philosophy and explain how they have shaped your worldview

I have always been a firm believer that challenges are placed in our path to help guide us in the future. I am very sorry to hear that you had to deal with such a difficult situation at such a young age. It is hard enough performing CPR on someone we don’t know; let alone someone we love. Like you, God placed a challenge in front of me at an early age paving my path to healthcare. A simple EMS ride-along program at 15, a response to a tragic accident with multiple fatalities, and my future was formed. I knew this was where I needed to be and what I was guided to do.

You have stated that we are shaped by the things that surround us, the people in our lives, and the events we are a part of. This is only backed by how both our lives were shaped early on. Our interactions in the world allow us to generate meaning and develop personal views and truths. They inspire us and assist us in the pursuit of our own purpose. (Leshkevich & Motozhanets, 2021)
