The other day our Pastor asked the kids of the congregation what they were going to do to make it a good year. He challenged them to think of some ways in which they could make the world a better place.
As we move forward into a year of changes and opportunities in the business of healthcare, this is a question that we should all contemplate.
Walt Disney once wrote that there were three types of people in this world:
1. Well Poisoner: People who criticize and try to tear people down rather than build them up.
2. Lawn Mower: Good people who do their jobs, pay their taxes, and take care of their families and homes but never venture beyond their own yards to help others.
3. Life Enhancer: People who enhance the lives of others by their kind words and deeds, and leave their world a better place.
As we set our goals for the new year let’s look for ways in which we can be a “Life Enhancer.”
Be an encourager to your staff. Show compassion to your patients. Be a mentor, a leader, and a friend.
How will you lead with purpose this year?
