Highlights

  • The story of 1+1=4.\xa0
  • A story about nail holes in a fence.
  • I compare the pharmacy profession to Camelot.\xa0 Sir Galahad might end up saving the pharmacy profession (not someone practicing now).
  • \u201cKnowledge of any value can\u2019t be given.\xa0 It must be sought and earned.\u201d\xa0 - Rick Riordan, The Serpent\u2019s Shadow (Kane Chronicles Series Book 3)
  • I compare Amazon Pharmacy to a natural disaster (like a tornado) and everyone else in the pharmacy profession to survivors who band together to survive and thrive. \xa0
  • Pharmacists sometimes act like someone has the answer and they\u2019re withholding it.
  • Advice:\xa0 get it right.\xa0 Don\u2019t try to be right.
  • You don\u2019t have a right to the cards you believe you should have been dealt.\xa0 You have an obligation to play the heck out of the ones you\u2019re holding.
  • Nobody is coming to save you.\xa0 Get up.\xa0 Be your own hero, and be your patient\u2019s guide. \xa0
  • Find people you trust, and listen to them.\xa0 1 + 1 = 4 when you work together.\xa0 I internalized this equation as a parent of a child with autism even thought I heard the story when I was I kid. \xa0 \xa0
