What a beautiful bonus weather day! Well…at least it is in NJ. I hope the same for MA.
My leadership team had a retreat late October and we each acknowledged the joy in our practice. Important to take a pause and reflect as an individual leader and as a team. We read the book “Stick Together” by Gordon and Leavell, which highlights team concepts. One of which stuck out to me as we continue to maneuver through this pandemic: consistency.
“Consistency is what creates excellence because we are what we repeatedly do, not what we say we’ll do or want to do. We must be consistent with our attitude, effort, leadership, teamwork, habits, and our pursuit of greatness…It means that our actions are based on our commitments rather than being controlled by emotion or events.”
With a nursing lens, if we are what we consistently do despite the events, then I think we are in a great place. We are there for the other, holistically, engaged and compassionate.
I am grateful.
