是該高興沒錯,但..........

昨天收到的信件...
當然還是很開心,但總覺得少了點什麼...

很開心在接觸論文寫作之初,遇到法師與老板...
他們的傾囊相授,讓自己很快就獲得當中的樂趣與成就感...

這是骨盆骨折的相關研究,登在美國急救醫學期刊...
也是回來工作後,用新的資料庫寫出的論文...

單純的資料分析,比較,寫作,這樣的模式其實很固定...
只要有點子有資料,幾個月就可以弄出一篇...

剛開始的時候,或許是研究方法不好,或是研究個案不足,甚至是語言寫作能力不佳...
對於投稿論文,是抱持著"先求有,再求好"的心態...

但每經過一段時間,就會希望自己能夠再進一步...
也希望自己能夠追求更高等級的學術研究...
雖然論文被接受刊登是件開心的事,不過也更希望自己能夠挑戰排名更高的期刊...

Keep walking with gentle and humble...
這是我的老大哥法師給我的勉勵...
我必須繼續努力...
