HORMESIS

The medical profession is known for its demanding nature, with doctors and other medical professionals working long hours and dealing with high levels of stress. As a result, there has long been a belief that medical practice can lead to a shorter lifespan for those who work in the field.  But is this belief accurate? In order to answer this question, it's important to first look at the reasons why medical practice may be thought to have a negative impact on lifespan.  One of the primary reasons is the high levels of stress that medical professionals are often subjected to.

THE ADVICE PARADOX  Taking more advice can leave you less well-prepared. Most advice sucks. It's well-intentioned, but it's dangerous to use someone else's map of reality to navigate yours. Winners develop filters and selectively implement advice—take signal, skip noise. 3. THE WISDOM PARADOX  The more you learn, the less you know. More knowledge creates more exposure to the immense unknown. “The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.” — Albert Einstein This is empowering, not frightening. Embrace lifelong learning. 4. THE OPPORTUNITY PARADOX  Take on less, accomplish more. Success doesn’t come from taking on everything that comes your way. It comes from focus—deep ...
