Four things I believe.
Documentation protects practice.
Good documentation is a patient safety intervention, not paperwork.
Clinical reasoning is not Googleable.
Teaching should build decision-making under uncertainty, not fact recall.
Measure before you improve.
QI without honest baseline data is governance theatre.
Precision over volume.
Discipline and structured thinking outperform speed and volume.
