Dear Residents/Trainees:

Some of you are just starting and some of you are graduating soon!

Medicine is a profession largely built on conformist cliches.

People will tell you how to work, talk, spend free time, do social media, etc.

As with anything else, there is a default, basic programming the center of conformism wants you to subscribe to.

Yes learn the system. Learn freely from everything and everyone around you.

But don’t stop thinking for yourselves...

If you just want to be invisible and “fit in” then please follow all the “advice” you will get.

If you have made it this far you are properly intelligent and very capable!

So take some advice— But also trust yourself!

Your mind will continue to serve you well.

Conforming is sometimes necessary yes— but should never be a central mantra of a THINKING MIND.

Don’t be afraid to think for yourself. EVER.

Person 1st, Physician 2nd.
