Ep. 3 How To Say No Beat Physician Burnout with Deanna Larson M.D.
-
- Health & Fitness
Today I talk about saying no. I really believe this is one of the most important skills that every physician needs to learn to manage their burnout. I talk about some of the reasons it is so hard to say no and give you so easy examples to use when you are stumbling for words. So often we say no because of the fear we have about what the requester is going to think or feel. And most importantly, I remind you that we don't know what they are going to think and there is no way to control it anyway.
(02:45) Is it wrong to say no?
(03:02) Saying no is one of the most important skills
(03:18) Why is saying no so hard?
(04:03) Studies
(04:26) Patterns may begin in childhood
(05:10) People-pleasing
(06:16) The “pay-back-trap”
(07:24) NO should be your default answer
(07:44) Benefits of Saying NO
(08:26) Be Clear
(09:18) Show Gratitude
(09:38) Give an explanation or NOT
(11:10) Offer an alternative
(13:15) Decide to say NO in advance
