TIME TO REFRESH AND RENEW…

At least twice a year I enjoy going to a seminar that reviews the latest in technology and gives me inspiration in my field of Ophthalmology. I am fortunate enough to work for a group that values training and skills in my field and supports my desire to refresh a few times a year; tomorrow is one of those days. I will leave the house while it is still dark to drive to a nearby city with other friends that work in my field to see old friends in the field I work in, listen to inspirational speakers and converse with those that I see year after year that do the same thing I do.

Tomorrow I will drive into the sunrise and thoroughly enjoy my day away from home and return at sunset with inspiration that will carry me to the next seminar that I will attend. I try and go to at least 2- 3 seminars a year for they refresh my skills, renew my interest in the field and clear my head.

Learning never stops; when we are young, we can’t wait to finish school and when we are older we miss those days and wish we could repeat them. I am fortunate that I have found a field that continues to hold my interest and has supported me both financially and spiritually for the last 30 years. Find a field that makes you happy and stick with it; don’t settle for anything less if you can help it.
