Toolbox – Heal ThySELF DVM http://www.healthyselfdvm.com Re-Igniting Your Love of Veterinary Medicine Thu, 20 Jun 2019 18:29:25 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.2.21 What is the Strongest Tool in Your Toolbox? http://www.healthyselfdvm.com/what-is-the-strongest-tool-in-your-toolbox/ Thu, 20 Jun 2019 18:29:25 +0000 http://www.healthyselfdvm.com/?p=1612 Continue reading "What is the Strongest Tool in Your Toolbox?"]]> I suggest that the strongest tool is NOT an EKG or blood work, but your sense of self and your strength through vulnerability.  Your understanding of who you are, and the belief that you can handle any situation and come out whole.

The ability to allow others to have their own experiences that flow through you, without affecting you, IS YOUR STRENGTH.  Their need to be angry or grieve does not trigger you into joining them in those emotions.

When you have done the work and are sure that you are safe no matter what happens around you, it is your greatest gift to yourself, your clients and your family.  This is the stuff that allows your career to be sustainable and even energizing.

Let me know what you think about this idea that the knowledge that you are safe and the release of fear-based reactions, is your greatest tool.  It may be a new idea. It may be something you have been working on. I’d like to know.
