Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A philosophic discussion is pertinent to all residents and practicing thoracic surgeons as they see retirement as just a continuum of their lives in the context of full engagement in life. In this article, the author extends the concept of engagement into a third dimension, one that includes autonomy, mastery, purpose, physical fitness, quality of life, life expectancy, personal finances, philanthropy, and a desire to be part of a national reckoning in the development of medicine in general and thoracic surgery in particular.
