Very broad – there are so many aspects of intensive care medicine!
To stop considering that all patients are the same. Focus on phenotypes.
Always listen and think, and act only when required.
Go and visit other centres - broaden your horizons.
Politician – it is important to act for society.
Intensive care medicine (and enjoying life, of course!)
