Reactions from a guy who works on a commission!

by Not a POD (no login)

 

I am NOT a POD, I am not even in medicine. But I am a success and I have seen people in my profession who made it and more that did not.

It is amazing that there are people here trying to get advice about life decisions and they have to encounter so many people on this site who clearly haven't done that yet themselves.

Success comes from determination, effort, creativity and a little bit of good fortune. It also helps not to get screwed over too many times. It is no different in any business.

From my perspective too many medical professionals think they are supposed to be rich without being responsible for execution on the business side.

I believe the disgruntled pods on this site would fail in other careers as well.

Trying to blame the profession for your failure reverberates what the problem really is!

I would be ashamed to be responsible for some of these posts. If you hate what you are doing then do something about it or do something else.

Trying to hang your anger on others is uncalled for.
