I learned a lot, which you can read in the current issue of SSV Medicine. But it's got me thinking about leadership and involvement and what that's done for me and my career. I whole-heartedly suggest that you take those opportunities as they arise. It can be a position within your medical group or practice, or can be taking on a new project in your community, or it can be making your own mark on the local medical society. In fact, SSVMS is calling for committee applicants and is always accepting volunteers for our award-winning community programs such as SPIRIT, Future of Medicine, and more. Beyond the good that you'd be doing for your community, you'll meet a lot of new colleagues in our area and expand your network. Win-win. Sign up for an SSVMS Committee or volunteer opportunity and plant your flag in organized medicine. Thank you for an exciting year as President and I'll see you soon! Paul D.
