    True Lies
    Monday, January 29, 2007
    I guess one of the things I have always heard and believed about myself was that I am a laid-back person. I don't really stress out over things and I'm not a drama queen. That much is true, I think but something I have just decided to be honest to myself about is that, I don't deal with stress effectively.

    Guess what I do when I'm stressed? You guessed right the first time around! I eat. A soda, cookies and anything sweet. Thats not a very good way to deal with stress my body tells me. So how then should I deal with stress? I hate yelling at people cos I feel so, so guilty afterwards. I hate panicking and running around in circles but I don't know good practical ways of dealing with stress.

    Of all the people I have talked to in a while, Kuldip is somebody I will remember for a long time. Kuldip is an assistant pharmacy director in one of these sunny states. He also accepted a management position right after his residency. I remember asking him how he felt on accepting his first position considering he had little personnel management previously. He admitted it was tough but one thing he said stuck in my mind. "You have to get yourself ready mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually." I know this sounds dramatic, but I see where he's coming from.

    Its no secret that lots of people bring their personal problems to the job. The expectation from the people that report to you is extremely high, it takes so little for you to lose your respect with them. I would like to bring energy to any department I work in because I truly believe in pharmacy. I love the fact that I am helping people get better. I also truly believe that people give more if they are appreciated for their efforts. Or am I just an idealist? Only time will tell I guess. I wish I had a mentor I could talk to.

    I guess this interview I came back from just opened my eyes to the gravity of my new responsibilities and also the fact that I'm a little in the dumps today.

    About Me

    Name: lala
    Home: Memphis, Tennessee, United States
    About Me: I'm an introvert. I love challenges and the "path less taken". I have discovered that life more of a journey than a destination so I try to enjoy each day. And if you've never failed at anything then you haven't tried anything outside your comfort zone. Right now, I have a love/hate relationship with Memphis. I love the city because the people are very friendly but careerwise, this place will be a dead end for me.
