Here is my PROMPT #1

"Write a sonnet in old English in the style of William Shakespeare about the first person experience of physician burnout"

Here is what it put out in less than a minute.
BTW, this is best read out loud. Go ahead and give it a shot.

It's Time to Take Back Your Practice

In days of yore, when learned men did strive,

To heal the sick and keep frail souls alive,

A doctor's heart, with steadfast will did quell

The mortal ills that in the flesh did dwell.

If your conscious mind is asking, "Is this what burnout feels like?" Your Little Voice already has the answer.

One of the things physicians ask me on our coaching Discovery Call is whether or not I think they are burned out.

They want a second opinion from a fellow doctor. That's a natural instinct and yet, my opinion is completely irrelevant in the arc of their life as a physician. The choice to change and grow has nothing to do with me or what I think or feel.

What matters is how YOU feel.

It's all about feelings. Burnout is not a rational process. It is not about ratings or scales or scores or someone else's opinion. Burnout is something you FEEL. Burnout is something your rational mind is always trying to talk you out of.  

You always have the power to build a more Ideal Practice

What varies is your ability to see this fact - especially when physician burnout has you in Survival Mode. Once you have a clear target - your Ideal Job Description ... you can line up the steps to take your practice back with your Master Plan.

Lesson 2: Origins of the Whirlwind and Your Way Forward is Here
~~~~~~~~~~

The current 63% physician burnout rate is a sure sign we are losing the battle between your Lightworker mission to be a helper and a healer ... and the Whirlwind of your job.

• Your current job description is nothing more than an expression of your employers Revenue Model.
• The day-to-day of your practice routine was never designed to satisfy your personal Ideal Job Description.

Learn how to take your practice back.

We have taught thousands of physicians this three-step process to build a more Ideal Practice since 2010.

Here is Step One:

Let me show you the origins of the whirlwind of practice overwhelm that is responsible for today's 63% physician burnout rate.

In the last post, we showed you the nature of this battle for your heart, mind, body and soul ... and why we are losing. 

In this post let me show you the forces that created your current Practice Whirlwind ... the hidden drivers of every keystroke, mouse click and frustrating meeting you must attend in your current job.

If doctors are the "frog in the boiling pot", this is the fire underneath.

The chaos and overwhelm of your current job is simple to understand when you realize your job was never designed for you.

• It was not constructed to meet your practice goals
• Or match your career desires
• Over 90% of physicians were never involved in the design of their current job description

If you don't understand who is in charge right now and learn how to take back your practice ... burnout is basically inevitable at some point in your career.

The Lightworker vs. the Whirlwind

Physicians are losing the battle between their Lightworker Essence and the Whirlwind of the modern practice of medicine.

How do we know this?

The most recent national physician burnout prevalence study shows an all time high 63% burnout rate. Remember, this survey is a snapshot. What it means is 63% of doctors were "suffering from at least one symptom of burnout" on the day they took the survey.

In the 6 minute video below, let me show you new ways of recognizing and preventing your own burnout ... and why I am optimistic you can take back your practice here in 2023.

Every week, dozens of physicians contact us or join our community here at TheHappyMD.com.

All of them are concerned about the little voice that says, "I'm not sure how much longer I can keep going like this."

These are the people who have been able to step around the main blocks to recognizing burnout - the physician's two prime directives.

• The Patient Comes First
• Never Show Weakness 
  
  

These doctors are the tip of the iceberg.

They are disobeying the programming of our medical education to ask for support. For every doctor that asks for help, there are hundreds, equally distressed, who are living the reality of Einstein's Insanity Trap. 

Remember, the most recent burnout survey shows daily prevalence of physician burnout is over 60% here in 2023.

Burnout Has its Roots in a Choice You Made a Long Time Ago ... You Chose to Be a Lightworker

Remember back when you decided to go to medical school?

Remember that fork in the road? 

You could apply to medical school. OR you could do literally anything else.

You looked in the mirror and recognized you were not like a lot of your friends in school.

• You are smart, quick and enjoy challenges.
• You had really good grades and knew you could work harder than almost anyone else.
• As you contemplated the challenge of medical school, you felt you've got what it takes.
• And you felt called to make a difference; to be a helper and  healer.
• You knew this was an extraordinary choice, because so few people came with you to a career in medicine.
• You hoped this choice would enable you to have an extraordinary life.

You chose to be a LIGHTWORKER and here we are

A LIGHTWORKER:
From that choice point forward, you allied your professional life with the forces of LIGHT in the universe, as we battle specific forces of darkness:

• Illness
• Suffering
• Death and dying
• and family member's crazed attempts to deal with those things.

No matter what stage of your career you are in now, we can agree the choice to become a doctor had a life-long series of unintended consequences. We had only a small understanding of what was in store for us. 

In this blog post let me show you
1) A deeper understanding of some of the most difficult aspects of being a doctor 
2) And six of our most popular tools to maintain your energy, faith and empathy when things get tough.
