The Curse of the Expert
I’ve written a new piece for Uncluttered White Spaces, it’s called “The Curse of the Expert“. In it, I outline the challenges we face as we become increasingly better at something, how we can combat that slide into an increasingly myopic future, and why focusing on passions is the key to it all.
Focusing on being a great doctor could be any number of things, from having an encyclopedic knowledge of all drugs on the market to making sure your practice never gets sued. If your focus is on helping and healing people to the best of your abilities, you’re more likely to be aware of the opportunities to do that exist outside of the next prescription.
I hope you enjoy, I’m look forward to the discussion.
