Learning and acquiring new knowledge is part of our everyday life. Every day we are faced with new situations and gain knowledge from these interactions.

In the nursing practice it is imperative to “be good at tackling difficult tasks, ignoring or changing negative beliefs, and asking for help when you need it” (Dugan,
