Why You Should Make Professionalism A Priority in Your Work Life?

Maintaining professionalism is a pretty important aspect in anyone’s work life, but people often underestimate just how important it is. Not only does it help you make an excellent and lasting impression, it also helps with future employments, personal and professional growth, and promotion opportunities. Let’s talk about that.

Be professional at your workplace

Work starts with wherever you are at the time. Being professional not only leaves a good impression, but also gives you certain influence and power over your co-workers and even superiors. Professionalism gives you an air of someone who knows what they’re talking about which makes people not only trust you more, but rely on you, look to you for advice, and listen to you.

Brighten Future Prospects

Professionalism not only polishes you to the point where you can effortlessly breeze by any interview, but also makes for a stellar CV and letter of recommendations. You can impress any person you meet in a professional setting at first word and leave a lasting impression not only through what you say and do, but also your documents, experience, and achievements. It also doesn’t hurt that your superiors have nothing but praise for how you conduct yourself. Recommendations matter more than you might realize, and if they can vouch for you, that’s a job you can confirm at that second. 

Personal Satisfaction

Despite taking the last place on this list, this might just be the most important. Before you can set out to do anything, you need to make sure you yourself are satisfied and happy with how you are and how you act. This can be achieved by external validation and reaction to your conduct, self-reflection, and an observed betterment in your own life. Professionalism lets you get that dose of praise and validation that you need to raise your self-esteem and satisfaction that leaves you feeling happy and motivated to do even better.

Hopefully, these tips were helpful and opened your eyes to the joys of some extra work put into your professional conduct. It may be hard at the start, but slow steps help you reap a lot of benefits, and these are just the tip of the iceberg.

A Brief Look at Portland Art Museum’s Early History

In 2020, Dr. Yale Popowich of Portland, Oregon, accepted the position of medical director for Moda Health, where he advises departments and oversees program development and performance. His background includes over a decade of clinical experience. Committed to civic involvement, Dr. Yale Popowich has served over the years on numerous community and cultural boards of directors, and he currently sits on the board of the Portland Art Museum.

The museum has brought new artistic experiences to the region since 1892, when a small local group dedicated itself to creating a premier art museum accessible to the entire community. Its original location was in a public library, and its first collections consisted of plaster casts of classical sculptures.

Through the efforts of donors and board members across the next few generations, the museum expanded. It relocated to its own building on the corner of Southwest 5th Avenue and Taylor in 1905, then moved in 1932 to its present residence at the intersection of Southwest Park Avenue and Jefferson Street. The museum’s red-brick structure was designed by local architect Pietro Belluschi, and the site is today a landmark feature of Portland’s Cultural District.

Exhibitions in the museum’s history include a displaying in 1913 of works that were part of the iconic New York Armory Show, which brought awareness of modern art to the United States. The Portland Art Museum’s 1959 Van Gogh exhibit saw record-setting attendance numbers, which enabled the museum to add French Impressionist Claude Monet’s beloved painting Waterlilies to its permanent collection. In 1996, The Imperial Tombs of China drew 2,500 people daily to the museum, many of them first-time visitors.

 

Recommended Preparations for Plastic Surgery

Dr. Yale Popowich most recently worked at Portland Plastic Surgery Group in Portland, Oregon. Before helping establish the group in 2006, he practiced general surgery for eight years. Dr. Yale Popowich is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.

Plastic surgery is a delicate procedure that demands a great deal of preparation. Before surgery can take place, plastic surgeons generally ask their patients to take a general physical examination. The results determine the patient’s suitability for the desired surgical procedure.

Let the surgeon know about any medication you're taking, both prescription and over-the-counter, as well as any nutritional supplements. You may have to stop taking some of them prior to your procedure and for a certain period of time afterwards. You may also have to avoid homeopathic and naturopathic drugs and supplements.

The surgeon will generally recommend that patients avoid tobacco for at least two weeks before the surgical procedure. Nicotine adversely affects the healing process. Alcohol should also be avoided for at least three days before surgery. It is a blood thinner that negatively affects the immune system.

Finally, you should ensure that you are on a healthy diet before and after surgery. The day before the surgery, don't eat or drink after midnight. Ensure you have a responsible person drive you home after the surgery, as you will be unable to do so yourself.

How Pico Lasers Work to Remove Tattoos

Licensed plastic surgeon Dr. Yale Popowich earned his MD from the Medical College of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. He practiced for many years in the area of Portland, Oregon. In a recent article, Dr. Yale Popowich explained how Pico-laser technology works to remove unwanted tattoos.

In contrast to many outdated tattoo-removal techniques, the Pico laser delivers ultra-short bursts in mere trillionths of a second. The pulse width is 100-times shorter than traditional nanosecond lasers. The powerful picosecond lasers shatter tattoo ink into micro-particles, which are then naturally dispelled by the body. This leads to better clearance in fewer treatments.

Older, less-efficient lasers depend on heat to melt the pigment. This heat burns the skin and requires many repeated treatments to remove the tattoo. The side effects of this heat treatment can also be problematic for patients. Pico-laser technology is becoming the go-to option for people who can afford the extra cost of this advanced treatment.
