It is the purpose of this book to stimulate thought processes that nurture a healthy attitude toward organizing one’s time and life so as to improve one’s own quality of life as well as the patient’s well-being.

• The micro-perspective: from goal to action
• Planning your week
• Acute disaster management: three major points
• Anxiety management and the “power of now”
• Networking; finding and working with mentors; reevaluating; learning from errors
