Questioning the chains of habit.
This paper could also be titled, "Fortunately, I Was Not Electrocuted." Dr Winslow candidly discusses her bathing and toileting research as well as her more recent research. Because she believes that failure is a good teacher, she describes her blunders as well as her accomplishments. In addition, she provides criteria helpful in selecting a good clinical problem for study and stresses the importance of identifying and investigating nursing rituals. Approaches that enhance the likelihood of success in research, public speaking, publishing, and in life are also shared.
