Do it Now! Tomorrow may never come! |
When I was a kid
just starting out
on the long road to becoming a CEO, I
worked in what is
now called facilities management.
Our
department head belonged to a rather
wealthy family and
, one year, he inherited over a million
dollars. But,
he kept working, crawling around in air
conditioning
ducts, helping to unclog overflowing
sewers.... We all
nagged at him to retire: "Al! You're
a millionaire! What are you doing
here?!" But, his response always
was that he loved his job and would stay
at it until retirement. When the day rolled around for his retirement party, Al got up to make a speech, grabbed his chest, and keeled over. He was dead before the ambulance arrived. There are two messages here: 1) If you love what you're doing (and where you're doing it!), stay with that job. You've found your niche, something very, very few people ever manage to do, in healthcare, or out. 2) But, if you are lumbering through each day, performing toil for people you don't like or respect, get out! Today is the day to start planning a move toward something you'd love! (Best not to run away from a bad situation...but to run toward something much better!) There's a great book called Life Is Uncertain, Eat Dessert First, and the title sums it up well. We don't know what situation may arise tomorrow that will prevent us once and for all from ever reaching our goals...and finding happiness. But, we have today to make a good start! Whether you're a Nursing Unit Director, Chief Nursing Officer, Facilities Manager, Lab Director, or CEO, just know that the world of hospitals and healthcare is a spacious world. There's ample opportunity for you to redirect your career into a pathway that will be person ally enriching, as well as monetarily. Begin formulating a plan to find your niche today! |
