Golden handcuffs: a phrase that came about in the late 1970s referring to financial compensation/allurement to keep individuals of a highly compensated [amount not defined] profession within the company/profession in spite of being unhappy.  This is a phrase that has been used to describe medicine.  Yet, is do we as physicians experience golden handcuffs or a golden opportunity? 

As physicians we meet several people.  Do we have the opportunities [golden] that can make a difference? How do we spot them?  One’s perspective is influenced by multiple things, all individual.

Though I am a physician, this is not medical advice.  This is only a tool that physicians can use to get ideas on how to deal with burnout and/or know they are not alone.  If you are in need of medical assistance talk to your physician.
