Do You Choose Wings or Crutches? (When things crash, it's your time to shine)
Wings or Crutches?
"In the presence of adversity, there are those who use crutches, and others who grow wings.” Unknown Source
In practice:
People measure themselves by how they react to adverse situations. When a patient is rude, or a procedure goes wrong, or the technology does not work, take that as a time to show your stuff.
People can soar or crash, and the circumstances do not define that, you do. When things crash, it’s your time to shine!

Worries Are of No Importance
"Difficult times have helped me understand better than before how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever.” Isak Denison
In practice:
Yes there are days that make you worry, on a personal and professional level. Remember that as time passes, those worries pass. Take a minute in a tough, worrisome day to remember things that have gone well in the past few weeks, and things you are grateful for...because these last, while worries do not.

Close to Success
