An insurmountable obstacle

Have you ever heard that old saying, "to eat an elephant, you just take one bite at a time."  I have been thinking about that adage....  I have been charged with what seems like an insurmountable obstacle - to get certifcation for stroke specialization.  After reviewing the standards, we have much more to accomplish than we have in place.  The Gap Analysis is a little scarey....

There are policies to write, people to train, job descriptions and competencies to implement, staff to get in the same boat, physicians to encourage, .... what more can I tell you?  I may be in over my head.

Those of you who know me well know that I love a challenge.  And, this is the mother of all challenges.

As I ponder this sword of Damacles, I also think back to other perceived inmsurmountable obstacles.... the death of a child.......

In the scheme of the world, this is the least of my troubles.  I can do this.  I will do this. 

I hope......
