I've learned to take on big challenges the same way you eat an elephant: one bite at a time. I've walked confidently in every adventure I've undertaken, especially in the OR. Unfortunately, that attitude hasn't always prevented me from occasionally ordering up a big slice of humble pie. Especially in the OR.
