Becoming a better pharmacist ⌛

Becoming a better pharmacist ⌛

Since leaving the world of startups and returning from travelling I've been dedicating myself to becoming a the best possible pharmacist.

My strengths in pharmacy is empathy and my calming nature.  I sometimes struggle with operational excellence 

These next few months (and years?) are dedicated to developing the systems and skills to be an operational excellent pharmacist. 

This includes:

  • Daily work flow
  • Excellent Clinical knowledge 
  • Excellent consultation skills
  • Deep work (á la Cal Newport) in pharmacy (is it even possible?)


How I'm doing this?

  1. Tracking work ♻️
  2. Daily start and finish checklists ✔️
  3. Mini breaks throughout the day
  4. Review of daily tasks and duties
    1. Avoiding failure exercise
    2. 80/20
  5. Setting the standards - becoming GPhC Inspection ready
  6. Most important questions training
  7. Clinical skills - Independent prescribing


  1. Daily checklists
