As I sat in a meeting this week in Phnom Penh, being presented with the figures from the most recent hospital assessments showing an unbelievably high score for most things in the hospital I am based at, I had this epiphany - it's not them, it's me...
So much of the time when struggling to make sense of my job & how I can go about successfully capacity building I am told by others that it is just a hard placement, that the hospital is one of the toughest to work in, the staff the most resistant & stubborn. I am reassured that I am in fact doing just fine.
But when a relationship ends & you are told "It's not you, it's me" you can't help but wonder if it isn't really actually all just you.
