I need to stop automatically replying with ‘yeah I’m ok thanks’ when speaking to the doctors or whoever and things are actually not ok… because now the pain is not taken serious 😭

Really great to be out in Maidenhead yesterday delivering our How to Engage training for the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead. Some great discussions about engagement working with @shaeccspeare
Phrases that mean nothing will happen:
Leave it with me
I’ll have a word
I’ll see what I can find
I’ll see what I can do
Consider it done!
I’ll make some calls
I’ll think about it
Certainly a possibility
Let’s come back to that
Good idea
I’ll let you know!
We’ll see
I’ll check it out
Noted
Maybe
I’ll get back to you on that
Could do, could do…
I’ll take that on board
Let’s park that for now
It’s on my list
I’ll definitely keep it in mind
Watch this space!
Hold that thought
I’m doing it as we speak
Might see you down there
Text me the details
I’ll look into it
When Albert Einstein met Charlie Chaplin in 1931, Einstein said, "What I admire most about your art is its universality. You do not say a word, and yet the world understands you." "It's true." Replied Chaplin, "But your fame is even greater. The world admires you, when no one understands you."
Today’s #NHS10Steps training was truly inspiring! Wonderful to see so many people committed to #CommunityEngagement sharing their thoughts and working together. Our thanks to all participants and our peer trainers @shaeccspeare, Yvonne, Bob, Diane and Carole.
A father told his daughter, "Congrats on your graduation. I bought you a car a while back. I want you to have it now."
Before I give it to you, take it to a car dealer in the city and sell it. See how much they offer.”
The girl came back to her father & said: "They offered me $10,000 dollars because it looks very old"
Father said: "Ok, now take it to the pawn shop".
The girl returns to her father & said: "The pawn shop offered $1,000 dollars because it's a very old car & a lot of work done".
The father told her to join a passionate car club with experts & show them the car.
The girl drove to the passionate car club.
She returned to her father after a few hours & told him, “Some people in the club offered me $100k because its a rare car that's in good condition.”
Then the father said, "I wanted to let you know that you are not worth anything if you are not in the right place. If you are not appreciated, do not be angry, that means you are in the wrong place. Don't stay in a place where no one sees your value ."
The moral of the story : Know your worth and know where you are valued. A diamond doesn't shine on the bottom of a cave.
Regardless of the immediate why, which can & will vary, we all want to leave this world better than we found it.
Not sure if Doctor Who is something that appeals to you but this clip, no matter your sci-fi persuasion, will help to add some perspective to your day, week and year x
I've reached levels of exhaustion I didn't know existed and have come close the the precipice to losing my cool many times, but this clip had me in tears because it reminded me of why we do what we do: legacy.
@AnnaGeyer_NP 💯 agree!!! No matter how many times I look at your graphic, there is always something new to see in the detail. Your skill is amazing! If I could draw, I’d be right there with you. But as I’m terrible with a paint brush, I’ll just cheer you on lol
