In this episode we are going to shake things up a bit and talk about TRUTH versus FACTS.You’ll discover the difference between truth versus facts and how it is critical for every physician or scientist in academia to understand the difference. Knowing the difference is essential not just in your role as physician or researcher, but also for life in general. Years of medical training have taught us how to think and WHAT to think. We might have adapted things as truth that are “just facts”. And as you’ll learn in this episode facts change.Facts are only as good as our current level or knowledge AND awareness. And much of what we believe is subject to our perceptions and interpretations.It’s time to sharpen our thinking and become a student again and question everything. Understanding these principles will help you tremendously in your personal and professional life.If you haven’t done so already, follow the podcast so you never miss an episode.Also, please consider rating and reviewing my show.
