If they want you now, they're going to want you even more later because you're going to be better.” This was a piece of advice the young Dr. Talmadge King received from one of his mentors. Tune in as we listen to the now Dean at UCSF share impactful anecdotes from his life reinforcing fundamental values of trust, kindness and continuous self-development to find joy in medicine. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. Start with trust, assuming that most people are decent and have good intent. You should give them the benefit of the doubt. 2. Early in your career, embrace a growth mindset, seek help, and develop the areas where you're weak. Later on, become more and more expert so that your work becomes your joy. 3. Let the game come to you—engage in continuous self-development so that you're better today than you were yesterday. If they want you now, they're going to want you even more later, because you'll be better.
