In Medicine the status quo is programmed into us from the beginning: abide by the hierarchy, keep your head down
That culture doesn’t lead to system transformation 1/
Listening to courage, not fear, is how we change the system in medicine. 2/
Know your personal values & strengths
Fight for others more than you fight for your own interests
Recruit allies
Be consistent
Be the solo protester if u have to be
Be ready to face the haters
Continuously re-evaluate your motivations
Refine your writing skills
Courage is a muscle. Grow it with small steps
Take care of your patients well
Maintain your clinical competency
Do not mistake kindness for weakness. Grow in kindness as well
