Better Atul Gawande

3 requirements for success in medicine or anything with risk and responsibility


1. Diligence- give sufficient attention to detail
2. Do it right
3. Ingenuity- thinking anew, arises from deliberate/obsessive reflection on
failure and constant searching for new solutions

Positive deviance build on capabilities people already have rather than telling
them how they have to change

Diligence- the constant and earnest effort to accomplish whatever is undertaken

Excellence comes from seeing, on a daily basis, the difference between being 99.5%
successful and 99.95% successful.

Count something- be a scientist in this world.
