Career Pearls to Ponder

I’ve been thinking a lot about some career pearls I’ve gleaned over the last couple of weeks from a few of my preceptors. Dr. C told me as we were talking about the advice he gave to his son and daughter about finding their paths that he always wanted them to listen to “quieter voices” that might otherwise be drowned out by family or social pressures. Dr. H told a patient yesterday how much she loved OB and how to be a doctor today, you really have to love it because otherwise it is not worth the amount of work you do for the pay you get. And of course, my assumption and realization that I have always had a lot of interests, enjoy having lots of interests, being spontaneous and curious. So what job can give me all of that? Jeez, its definitely gonna be a challenge figuring out what I can AND what I can’t do . . . can’t wait to take it on!
