Decision Making

well no discrimination at all but facts speak for themselves. Yeah different minds think differently, they say different strokes for different folks. Even though there may not be much of an educational difference but there is hell of a difference in thinking and decision makings among different peoples. let me tell u a joke to understand this, this does not apply only to the doctors but to the general population too :

once a general practitioner, a psychiatric, a physician and a surgeon went duck hunting. They saw some ducks flying.

GP tried 1st, he saw some birds flying. he took position and when the birds were close he said " i don't know whether these are ducks or not so i must have a senior consultation" and he missed.

Psychiatric went 2nd , took position , saw ducks coming and said " i know these are ducks but do they know that they are ducks " and he missed them too.

Physician took position , say many ducks flying he said " i am sure these are ducks but i should observe them for some time " so the ducks went safe.

Surgeon took position , he saw some birds flying.he opened fire and shot them and said " Now lets see whether these are ducks or not "

well, i think i don't i have to explain anymore and as far as i am concerned i am a Physician.

Now its your turn to tell; what do you think, how do you take decisions? Like a general practitioner, like a Psychiatrist , like a Physician or like a Surgeon?

  • Decisions of heart are quick and the decisions of mind are slow, therefore we say; physicians use their mind while surgeons don't :D
  • @Luci
    I'm a bit lazy in taking decision, observation for a while is my habit which makes me a physician. But let me not forget to mention that I always envy surgeons. Trusting your instincts and making judgements on what your heart tells you is a thing to learn for your heart never betrays you but your mind may, isn't it?
  • As I am impatient and want to solve the things immediately... m without doubt a surgeon :D I know it isn't all the time the best to react immediately and then to realize ...ooppss there are some consequences of my actions but it is simply my nature...what about you NHL? :p

    Well, I appreciate your theory of making decisions but the Tragidy is; at most times the decision has to be taken quickly, in such cases a delay might result in a misstep. Yup, time is the key but you seldom find this key at the nip of the time.

    Anyhow, you must be a successful person if you take your decision ever so wisely.
  • Time is the key factor of decision making the above story tells us the importance of time! some time we need to consult with others before taking decision like general practitioner, some time we need to thing before reacting on some one mistake is he/she doing that act intentionally or unintentionally? Like a Psychiatric, some time we need time to understand other and we should observe them like a Physician and some time in life need to take bold decision like a Surgeon

    so I take my decision in all above ways its depending on need of the hour. 

  • Don't get electrocuted by my words lol
