Success

If you desire a career as a doctor then you will already be more than aware of the intelligence which you need, plus the grades which you’ll need to achieve this position. What you may not be too aware of however is the skillset that is required to accompany these high grades, that will help you to become a great doctor. I recently spent some time in a hospital in Texas, and was lucky enough to spend some time with the incredible Dr. Roger Olade, Texas resident and one of the most respected people in the hospital. I was curious to find out about what skills a doctor should portray, and Dr. Olade was more than happy to discuss this with me, here is what the highly respected Texan doctor had to say.

Perfectionist

To be great in the job a doctor must be a perfectionist, always on the lookout for the greatest possible result. With this perfectionism comes an eye for detail and in the world of medicine those details are vitally important when it comes to diagnosing a patient. Furthermore for anyone to study medicine and do well, they too will need to be someone that is constantly seeking perfection.

Realist

Doctors are truly great individuals who have the capability to do outstanding things on the human body yet there are limits and a doctor must realize these. This is not to say that a doctor should be a defeatist in the face of a curable disease or disorder, but rather that they should be realistic in accepting things that they cannot change. Here in Texas Dr. Olade works with internal medicine, an area which shows us time and time again the limitations that medicine has.

Empathetic

Back in the day we used to think that doctors should be function and void of emotion but those days are gone and in modern medicine we want out doctors to understand our plight, and be caring as they soothe our pain. Doctors should be conscious of a person’s situation and make sure that they offer empathy to help them through it.

Communication Skills

Some doctors do have a reputation for being slightly awkward socially but it is very important that a good doctor knows how to speak to both patients and colleagues. In many cases when there is an illness, doctors will need to work together from different branches of medicine to help the patient, and to do that requires strong communication skills.

Leadership

Doctors must display leadership when it comes to their patients, this includes how they lead the other doctors as well as how they lead the nursing staff. When a doctor has the responsibility of a patient, they are the project of the doctor and they must be the one to call the shots on every decision that is made. Not enough people speak about leadership but it is certainly something that each doctor will need in their career.

 

For those who love sports, understanding the games better is paramount. Real sports fans want to know all of the important details of how a sports works, what are the rules and the best strategies that those who play the games well use to be the best.

Some sports enthusiasts actually want to take things to the net level and participate professionally in the sport. This can be difficult because playing a sport well takes a combination of skill and natural ability. If you have both it will also likely take decades to hone your skills and ability to a high level. So getting on the field is not feasible for most sports fans no matter their enthusiasm.

There are however opportunities for getting involved in sports even if you cannot play the sport and many sports lovers use these opportunities to get as close to the sport as possible. If you are a sports lover, like Mack Prioleau, here are two of the best sports jobs that you might want to consider to get you in the game.

Scout

A scout works either independently or for a team to locate up and coming sports talent. They are paid either on a salary or when they locate someone that a team thinks has potential. Scouts will work in one sport and become an expert on all of the young players who are showing promise. They typically focus on one area of the country and claim that area. For instance if you are a baseball scout, perhaps your area is the West Coast and so you will be following and become very knowledgeable on players in California, Washington, Oregon and Nevada. You will know who has potential, all of the player stats, you will interview players to check their personalities, talk with their coaches and parents to get a better sense of who they are, and then relay this information to professional baseball teams. It can be a grinding job but for those who do it well, you can make a good living and get excited when one of your young people is selected.

Coach

There are coaches for both individual athletes and sports teams in every sport. The coach’s job is to develop players into the best players they can be and to take your team past its potential. This requires complete dedication and an understanding of the game, people, and how to motivate them. When you start out as a coach you will likely have a players who are not very good and it will be your job to get them to perform better and stay healthy and fit. You will take the lead from rom leading exercise drills to teaching new athletic skills. You might be the only or one of several different coaches and you might choose to focus on one or all aspects of the game. In the end, you’ll be performing duties in your role as a coach that will prepare your players for game day. This will also include off the field training meaning getting your players ready emotionally to focus on the game no matter what is happening in their personal lives. If you become good and get your team to perform well, you will win lots of accolades and may even get paid. Today the best coaches make salaries in the millions of dollars per year.
