2️⃣   Delegation is key: Physicians can delegate certain tasks, such as administrative work, to medical assistants or nurses. It's about effectively utilizing the skills of the team and focusing on tasks that truly require a physician's expertise. 🤝

3️⃣   Outsourcing leads to freedom: By outsourcing tasks like cleaning, organizing, or even hiring a chef, physicians can free up valuable time and reduce mental stress.
