People. Process. Progress.

Bruce Lee was a genius, both in martial arts and in life philosophy. In this episode I share my $.02 on his famous 'Be Like Water' statement about his philosophy on adaptability and times of breaking through barriers, like water.

Bruce Lee's Original Statement - “Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves. Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend. - Bruce Lee”

The more things change, the more they stay the same.  Recruitment and retention are still tops as areas of concern in EMS.  Gaps in optimism between Medical Directors and Field Providers, 40% of EMS workers that would not recommend the career to others and "Ask My Mom" are updates and features to the 2019 EMS Trend Report briefed in this episode.

Key Time Stamps:

* 00:01:30 - Stay in this life

* 00:04:15 - EMS overall less optimistic 2018 to 2019

* 00:06:30 - Basic active shooter preparedness

* 00:11:45 - Burger King workers making more than EMTs

* 00:13:35 - Living healthier lifestyle in EMS

*Episode 29 episode listing with mental health resource links: https://www.blubrry.com/betweentheslides/45201017/from-suicidal-to-saving-others-with-ben-gomes/ (https://www.blubrry.com/betweentheslides/45201017/from-suicidal-to-saving-others-with-ben-gomes/)
