I think we were beginning to be more aware of this burnout in the early 70’s. HITECH opened the gates and ushered the advent of the straw that is breaking the camel’s back (EPIC in my case, but more than just that). I share your burden. How we cope differs but I would hazard that the goal is the same. I started focusing on “atelic” activities and view “telic” ones as a means to achieve the former. Our rounds are never going to be shorter, consults are never going to be fewer.
Shared burden makes it easier to swallow - share your thoughts.
Time is limited. I begin rounds with an eye towards the promise of time to spend on that which I “dont need to do” but “want to do”. - focus on the “atelic” (although do not forget the “oath”).
Kieran Setiya maybe a rabbit hole you might consider to explore.
Hold the line, although you don’t need to toe the line.
