As a doctor, you navigate an environment that is both rewarding and challenging. Whether you’re at the start of your career or considering a transition after years of service, the demands of the healthcare industry can often leave you feeling stuck or uncertain about your next step.
It’s during these moments of hesitation that the words of Karen Lamb offer a timely reminder: “A year from now, you may wish you had started today.”
Why Start Now?
For many doctors, the idea of making a significant change can be daunting. It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the responsibilities of your current role, the emotional toll of patient care, or the sheer volume of administrative tasks. But waiting for the “perfect moment” can lead to stagnation. A year from now, where do you see yourself? Still contemplating that leap into leadership? Still wondering if there’s a better work-life balance to be found?
Now is the time to take that first step, no matter how small. Whether it’s seeking support through coaching, developing new leadership skills, or simply acknowledging the need for change—starting today sets the course for a more fulfilling tomorrow.
The Power of Taking Action
As a GP with over 25 years of experience, I understand the pressures you face in the healthcare industry. I’ve coached professionals who have felt overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of their career paths. They’ve found clarity, resilience, and balance by taking that first step—just as you can.
Here’s what can happen when you start today:
- Clarity: You’ll gain a clearer sense of direction, whether it’s moving forward in your current role or exploring new opportunities.
- Confidence: By investing in your growth, you’ll build the confidence to handle challenges with resilience and grace.
- Fulfillment: Taking action can lead to a renewed sense of purpose, helping you find joy in both your personal and professional life.
Imagine a Year from Now
What could you accomplish by this time next year? Could you be leading with greater confidence? Experiencing better work-life balance? Or maybe you’ll be thriving in a new role that aligns more closely with your values and passions.
The decision to start today doesn’t mean overhauling your life overnight. It’s about making a commitment to yourself and your future—a commitment to take that first step. Because a year from now, you’ll be grateful you did.
