Balancing Act
Throughout his career, Jerry Stewart, MD, admittedly struggled with time management—balancing work, family, community service and other commitments.
 
"I couldn't do this alone, in a vacuum—I discovered not early enough," said Stewart, who established priorities: family first, work second, and other commitments third.
 
"I'm fortunate I don't require a lot of sleep and am an early riser (4:30 a.m!). Early morning is quiet time for me to reflect and try to organize my day," he said.
 
After a pause, he talked about managing "surprises."
 
"In medicine, every day brings unanticipated events involving patients or administrative semi-emergencies," he said. "Occasionally, a family matter merits prompt attention. I learned that you have to be flexible; you must have an understanding wife and children; you must have a good, dependable diligent support staff; be a good listener; and do not make a decision without hearing all sides and getting all the information."
