Chances are you became a doctor because you felt a calling. That’s admirable, of course. The world needs more helpers.
And perhaps you still feel that calling, but do you feel it anywhere from 60 to 80 hours a week?
Are you practising your calling a lot? So much so that perhaps the quality of medicine you practice suffers?
For the average physician, the standard 40-hour workweek is anything but standard. A doctor’s schedule can be brutal.
When people are happy, they’re able to be kinder and more empathetic in their professional lives as well as their personal lives.
People don’t want to just go to work, pay the bills, and try to save enough money so they don’t have to go to work when they get to retirement age. They want to live life now.
