"Metz." The surgeon holds out his hand. I fumble to find the Metzenbaum scissors buried somewhere in the crammed tray of gleaming instruments laid out before me. After what seems an eternity I find the scissors. Turn them around so they fit neatly into the surgeon's hand. I’m slow, I know this. Anatomy? Check. Surgical approach? Check. But the instruments? Struggling. I try to remember the names of the sleek, sterile tools spooning into each other on the tray. I say their names in my head, rehearse their function. But I get confused about the order of things. Muddled about each instrument's specific purpose.?Would I ever be ready with the right instrument at the right time? I practiced between surgeries. During operating room cleaning days. Any moment I could get my hands on those instruments, I repeated their names out loud. Rehearsed the movements I needed to make to get each instrument smoothly into the surgeon's hand. Solo practice only took me so far. The real breakthrough? A peer who observed and provided real-time feedback. Corrected my instrument selection, refined my handoff technique, and helped smooth out the inefficiencies in my movements. Then it happened. Fumbling turned to flow. During a nephrectomy, everything aligned. No more mental gymnastics trying to recall instrument names. No more clumsy handoffs. My hands moved smoothly, intuitively, two steps ahead of the surgeon. The lesson? This shift from muddling through to mastery isn't magic. Mastery requires: 1. Deliberate practice 2. Expert feedback 3. Continuous refinement 4. Patience through the learning curve It's the same in medical writing, especially when you're learning a new specialty. (Which is what we do right here in WriteCME Pro). What's your prescription for moving to mastery?

In the professional development support I provide for CME writers, I recently had a powerful session that reminded me why I love what I do. I worked with a talented writer who, despite having repeat clients and proven success with needs assessments, was hesitating to reach out for new work. Sound familiar? Here's what shifted during our coaching: → Reframed their expertise: Many of your CME clients (even medical directors!) have never written a needs assessment themselves. YOU are the expert they need. → Transformed "asking for work" into "helping clients": When you reach out, you're helping organizations meet deadlines, expand their reach, and deliver quality education. → Released perfectionism: Realized they didn't need to "finish learning everything" before taking on new work. Growth happens through doing, not just preparing. The result? My client left with a clear action plan and renewed confidence, ready to connect with clients. This is why we focus on mindset shifts alongside tactical strategies in WriteCME Pro. The best writing skills mean little if we're too hesitant to use them. Are you a medical writer struggling with similar challenges? What's holding you back from finding and nurturing clients? #MedicalWriting #CME #WriteCMEPro

?? Love outlines or hate them? A recent WriteCME Pro coaching session with Crystal Herron, PhD, ELS revealed something surprising: What many writers see as a dreaded task is actually a powerful tool. Key insight from Crystal: Writing isn't hard because writing is hard - it's hard because thinking is hard. Crystal showed us how to transform outlines from rigid templates into flexible thinking tools that make both the writing AND editing process smoother. ?? Game-changing takeaway for me? The "zip/unzip" technique. Curious? This is the kind of practical approach we regularly explore in WriteCME Pro. What makes our community special? We're medical writers focused specifically on #CME.
